It may be the case that setting up any division such as the one I describe here is counter-productive. Still, by identifying mini-puzzles, we may be able to divide and conquer this mysterious question. What is the underlying structure below these shapes? How many solutions do we have? How do they grow and how predictably do they expand?I'm sure mathematicians already know the answers to these questions, but they don't post accessible video responses to my videos, do they?Pennywort is a winner.

Nov 19, 2008 - Cool puzzle, and by the way, where are you hoping to grow your wort? Let's hope it's not on your great Tattoos!
variablast Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - :)I've had like 4 of those drinks, so I think I'll grow them as vertices on an 18-162 rhombus.
SoullessAtheist Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - Gosh, that would be in intriguing talent! Do you think there's money to be made in Puzzle Worts?
SoullessAtheist Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - Nope, can't include ourselves among that sorry lot.

Nov 19, 2008 - Most people like their warts removed, not arranged geometrically. Poor conformists.;) -Typo fixed and erased. The advantage of posting on your own videos.

Nov 19, 2008 - They aren't gigantic investments. If you don't watch ProfMTH or QualiaSoup you'll notice that they offer a more varied field of images and invest a lot in what they put up. Still, :-) Thanks.

Nov 19, 2008 - Hmmmm, is a desire to the obtainment of grammatical and typographical perfection in of itself "Conformity"? I wonder......
variablast Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - It is a kind of conformity. So is wearing clothes though.If what you are conforming to is of the highest quality I don't mind trying to fit in. So, if I'm doing a scientific study I wouldn't mind conforming to the latest in double-blind testing, randomized sampling, and multivariate correlative analysis. It's being a conformist, but it is also kicking ass.When it comes to irrational or nonsensical behavior conforming is a detriment, not a benefit.
SoullessAtheist Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - I agree with that....Just testing you....LOLAlthough in some climates wearing clothes though just doesn't make any sense. A trip to Cap de'agde for everyone!!!

Nov 19, 2008 - I've been thinking about this comment. ProfMTH keeps his video production pretty frequent as well as high quality. You really should check him out (I noticed on your home you aren't subbeD).If the internet is going to take over TV, and citizens are going to replace bought and sold media suckups we'll need to put out plenty of videos pretty damn frequently.

BTW how much are the Penny Wort Drink people paying you for your product placement? They might not like the wort line a whole lot! LOL...Good vid!

Nov 19, 2008 - There's a chance my attempts at getting advertising for this site are going to fail. That was the best slogan I could come up with. :-)Nobody is paying me anything yet, I'll give some indication if any of the ads are from real sponsors. :-)Thanks 2b.
