"In René Daumal's Mount Analog-A Novel of Symbolically Authentic Non Euclidean Adventures in Mountain Climbing, a myth is told: 'in the beginning the sphere and the tetrahedron were united in a single inconceivable form'. A recent search of my hard drive revealed over 250 files and folders with tetrahedron in the title. Spelunking is the metaphor I use to describe my use of the computer to differentiate the sphere from the tetrahedron "
