"ing their positions radially, i.e., vertically, inwardly to
register on the skins of both the whale and the crocodile and
on the 20-foot Earth globe. Now, with the human eye at the
common concentric centers of volume of the 20-foot and 200-foot
spheres, as well as both the whale and the crocodile, we may
sight outwardly-- which is inherently radially-- in all direc-
tions, and will observe that all the grids and all the geograph-
ical and celestial star data appear as one grid, being in exact
radial register. We have all the same grids and data on all
four of the concentric surfaces: 200-foot celestial sphere,
whale, crocodile, and 20-foot Earth globe. That registering of
all data is obviously independent of radial distance from the
common center; ergo, the only variable in the system is the
radius to any given point within the concentric systems.
"As we have demonstrated with geodesic domes and spheres, what
is meant by compound curvature is 'omni-intertriangulated struc-
turing (i.e., balanced connectors) of concave-convex surface
points’. Given a unit radius sphere and the known central
angle between any two radii of known length, then the length of
the chord running between their outer ends may be calculated
by trigonometry by running a line from the sphere center per-"
