RBF Definitions
“Then the icosahedron has a volume of 18.51. It is an odd number, but you find that number complemented-- one of the few that doesn’t have a whole number-- complemented by another that comes out 27. An interesting number because its number is very close, the fraction 18.51, very, very close to the weight ratio of electrons to protons. I think it is close enough to be worth to be looked at sometimes. It may have some of those kinds of behaviors. Its volume is 20, nearer to talk that way, nearer to 18.51, and it has 20 Faces.”
