    I'll take the challenge, starting by publishing a page on it Thursday, July 17, 2008. I know it won't win the prize because it is not down to earth practical enough, but it is my best offering. Bucky's thought has been a cornerstone for me since 1955 when I heard him speak. Now to see his show at the Whitney Museum, NYC and see where we go from here. Happy tetrahedrons!
