I *hope* this is *not* the solution to:
>>Can you place 6 unbendable unbreakable matches in such a way
>>that they form 4 equilaterial triangles?

Soln:  Build a stupid tetrahedron with them?  I'm not too very geometrical
so by that I mean, lay a triangle on the ground, and select just the
right point above it so that the other three matches will join up
with the corners of the triangle.

This *can't* be the solution.  It is too babyish.  But it works.
