Animated wire-frame Polyhedron display,
complete with duals and double precision
angles to the polygons. Also technical
program description and 75 pictures.
Just one thing, thats still outstanding.

Big Bertha Thing windows
On the Windows of King's College Remaining Boarded.
Loquitur Discipulus Esuriens.
Professors, in your plan there seems
A something not quite right,
'Tis queer to cherish learning's beams,
By shutting out the light.
While thus we see your windows block'd,
If nobody complains;
Yet everybody must be shock'd,
To see you don't take pains.
And tell me why should bodily
Succumb to mental meat?
Or why should eta, beta, pi,
Be all the pie we eat?
No helluo liborum I,
No literary glutton,
Would veal with Virgil like to try,
With metaphysics, mutton.
Leave us no longer in the lurch,
With Romans, Greeks, and Hindoos;
But give us beef as well as birch,
And board us - not your windows.

A computer program, called kaleido (cf. [Ha]) and
publicly available at ftp@ftp.math.technion.ac.il,
has been developed to compute the data of a uniform
polyhedron (and its dual)...
Kaleido is also capable of computing the vertex and
face coordinates and displaying a rotating wire-frame
image of each polyhedron.

Big Bertha Thing warlord
The last time I heard that an apology given under duress was valid,
was in the Monty Python' comedy sketch on the Spanish Inquisition.
Everytime anyone said Spanish Inquisition,
then 3 red cardinals turned up to organise it.
What do I have in comon with a Texas cattle baron?
He thinks that he is a bigger liar than I am. I think I am.
What does a drill sargeant have in comon with a chinese warlord?
He says that the sun will not rise tomorrow. His men believe it.
What is the difference between a Texas cattle baron and a
chinese warlord? The one knows he is lying. The other has never had
the problem.

Consider an iPod touch. It will sync Contacts, Calendar and Notes with
Outlook via iTunes. No contract and you will have access to thousands of
iPhone apps. It has WiFi and will do a great job of browsing/email via
its lovely touch screen. Oh, and its also an iPod.
