The platonic solid of quietude will be hovering over this place for a couple of weeks, so play nicely while I am gone.

No, you have to stay. Sorry, but you have to stay. Stay! Good boy!

John Weeks

<P>Two out of two readers cannot be wrong. It is settled. You must stay.</P>

Mike

Sitting would also be nice. We do not, however, expect any of that rolling over nonsense. <br> Unless you've just vacuumed, then it would be all right.

LeeAnn

Maybe if we don't play nicely he'll be forced to come back?

indomitus

Hmm, he didn't announce a "cone of silence" this time :(<br> <br> I feel cheated!

Bob Bob

<P>You haven't been cheated. He's just giving you a choice: in a way it's a much better offering. I find I quite like the undecahedron.</P> <P><A href="http://mathworld.wolfram.com/topics/PlatonicSolids.html">http://mathworld.wolfram.com/topics/PlatonicSolids.html</A></P> <P>This cone is for those who want to be strangely intimate with their boss:</P> <P><A href="http://www.cinerhama.com/getsmart/innovations.html"><a href="http://www.cinerhama.com/getsmart/innovations.html</A></P> <P>">http://www.cinerhama.com/getsmart/innovations.html</A></P> <P></a> </P> <P>GG</P>

Get Smart link FYI

The requested URL /getsmart/innovations.html&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;<br> was not found on this server.<br> <br> Gav Gav, <br> properties for your link reads: <br> <a href="http://www.cinerhama.com/getsmart/innovations.html%3C/A<br> %3E%3C/P%3E%3CP%3E<br> <br> If">http://www.cinerhama.com/getsmart/innovations.html%3C/A<br> %3E%3C/P%3E%3CP%3E<br> <br> If</a> you copy, then paste into browser it works fine.

so...we're just going to run a truly Bifurcated Bifurcated Rivets on our own right in the comment section? I feel alone.<br> <br> scared.<br> <br> I will use this to keep me warm.<br> <a href="http://www.ferryhalim.com/orisinal/g3/spider.htm<br> <br> <br> hold">http://www.ferryhalim.com/orisinal/g3/spider.htm<br> <br> <br> hold</a> me someone, please. <br> <br>

I think there was a definitional debate about the Get Smart shape last time, so Lindsay's has been made more generic.<br> <br> Gav Gav, I thought you write "unDEADecahedron" and was expecting some sort of coffin-shaped thingie (not, of course, to be confused with non-engineer "thingies" as previously discussed at The Register).

Chris Kuan

Chris, <br> Not to make a big deal about the whole "thingie," but, <br> I think you wrote, "I thought you write......"<br> <br> btw, one of the dots in the above quote is period.<br> Not going to say which one.

ang

jeez, I neglected to put the word "a" in my previous comment. How.....neglectful of me.

ang

Was there a sneaky period in <span style="font-weight: bold;">that</span>, too? ;-)

Chris Kuan

chaos has ensued

He has only been gone 5 days and chaos has already taken root. People using elongated elipses.....people arguing about unconventional grammar, spelling and punctution, attacks on the cone of silence. I fear that this situation will soon degrade as it did in Lord of the Flies and we will be forced to hold a conch shell to signify that it is our turn to speak (aka leaving a message). Ultimately this little society will crumble into violence and potentially death. I hope He returns soon.
