In my High School Elementary Analysis with Trig Book, there were these "Great names in math" type of things. One was about a man, whose name I forget, who created a universe that is spherical. The center is hot, and it cools towards the edges. So the closer you get to the edge, the slower you go, and the smaller you get. You can never reach the edge. My question is who was this man, and does anyone have any more info about this universe, or any other nifty theories by him? Ben Walls bsw@cbosgd.UUCP -- Ben Walls ...!cbosgd!bsw or bsw@cbosgd.uucp
