Well, I'm sure you're not a phyto - but Isosceles is a triangle - not a square. I'm
confused. I'll leave the upper level trigonometry to the math majors of the group!!
Take this one up with Isosc. I was just hinting at the personal stamp which requires
the first 10 digits of pi memorized.

:-)

Oh dear ... when is a square not a square? When it's a speed-square! Ask for it the next
time you visit your favorite hardware store. - speedsquare

Probably so; I am so easily distracted and prone to going off in tangents. I REALLY need
some sleep. Everyone else is probably tiring of this nonsense as well. ~speedsquare

BTW - I checked up on that earlier reference to the 10-digit recitation to get Isosceles'
traveller. I can do that!
