Thank you Jenn for pointing that out. I made a mistake when setting
it up. The actual code is VRGX38KP
I apologize for any inconvenience I may have caused.

The 100-page full-color book derived from the video, Platonic Solid
Rock, has just been released! For a free preview, visit the website,
www.PlatonicSolids.info .
Well, in my opinion, one of the biggest shortcomings of a definition
is that it is always based on several other definitions. For instance
if you define a calf as a baby cow, now you need the definition of
baby and the definition of cow. Is a sea cow a cow? And even if you
agree on what a cow is in general, what is meant here? Isn't a baby
bull a calf? Does that mean that a bull is a cow? Also, how young
does an animal have to be to considered a baby? So you see, any
definition assumes some understood terms. And, no matter how specific
you try to be with a definition, it is always at least somewhat open
to interpretation. Have I helped define some of the ways that
definitions fail?

Hi all,
I thought I would let you know that I am in the middle proofing
what I hope is the final galley of The Platonic Solids Book, a 100-page
color-illustrated book about the Platonic solids. The book will be
available on the website and through Amazon.com.
I joined this group because my 6 year old son begged me to! :-) He
loves geometry--specifically he is passionate about the Platonic and
Archimedean solids. He asks daily to construct them..,toothpicks and
gumdrops, paper, polydron set...
One of his favorite rewards for cleaning his room, etc is watching
Platonic Rock on youtube. He found it all on his own :-).
His favorite 2 books right now are "Life of Fred--Geometry" and Daud
Sutton's "Platonic and Archimedean Solids."
He is begging to make circumspheres for his platonic solids! YIPES!
I am an Pre-unemployment major (AKA English lit--Victorian Studies)
and joined in hopes that my little guy will know that there are
indeed others out there in the vast cosmos who love geometry as much
as he does.
Thanks!
Peace~ Jenn
(Reed's mom)
The www.PlatonicSolids.info website now has merchandise containing
polyhedral images for sale. The collection of items and graphic
images will continue to grow over time. In addition, I also have
plans to offer educational posters about the Platonic solids. So
check back often.
Dan Radin
If you are looking for the new files, you may have trouble because I
moved them into their own folder so the link in the previous posts is
no longer correct. However, you should have no problem finding them
if you check the Files link in the Platonic Solids discussion group.
The files do a thorough job analyzing the question of how many ways 8
cubes can be arranged and also pointing out some analogies with
molecular structures.
Dan Radin
Hi Dan Radin,
Glad you liked my files on the 8-cube question.
Please feel free to upload them to the group or to
share them with whomever.

Hi Dan,
Yes, please mail me your Word files. I would love to read them.
I'm amazed at how high a number the answer is.

Hi Dan,
I posted the question to 4 math groups, and I got
replies from 2 of them. The answer is 6,922. My
write-up turned into 2 new Word files. Let me know if
you would like me to e-mail them to you off list. I
think you would find them quite interesting.

Finding fabulous fares is fun.
Let Yahoo! FareChase search your favorite travel sites to find flight and hotel
bargains.

That's an interesting question. I'll be curious to hear what you find
out and/or figure out.

I recently attended a teacher workshop on math
manipulatives. One of the activities was to figure
out how many geometrically "unique" ways 8 cubes can
be arranged with face-to-face connections. I have
begun to catalog my results including the chiral
(mirror-image)examples.
My question is: Does there exist any kind of
theorem for such an exercise that gives the total
nuber of possibilities?
Will appreceiate any responses.

Welcome to the Platonic Solids Discussion Group! Be sure to check out
the associated website, www.PlatonicSolids.info if you haven't yet.
It's full of lots of great resources on the Platonic solids. There
are animated GIFs, hi-resolution graphics, desktop wallpaper, paper
polyhedron plans, polyhedral origami, a polyhedral screenplay, great
links to other resources, and a computer-animated video call Platonic
Solid Rock.
