[QUOTE]Originally posted by EdipisReks: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by CaptainMike XXIII: [qb] a circle, rectangle, triangle, and a square are all two dimenional shapes. adding the third dimension will make a circle into a sphere or a cylinder, a triangle into a pyramid or cone and will make a square or rectangle into a rectilinear solid. if the sides are equal on your rectilinear solid, it is a cube, otherwise it is a cuboid rectilinear solid. but rectangles exist on a 2d plane and are therefore impossible except on a conceptual level in our three dimensional universe, so Edipis is theorizing the existences of some 2d concept. unless we are dealing with a rectangular solid, hm? which by the way, is the exact shape a DVD is packaged and shipped, and sold in. I wouldnt consider it worth its salt if it was just a CD on the floor. [/qb][/QUOTE]but you are forgetting that the packaging is a discreet entity that is quite different from a dvd itself. no question was posed about the packaging. also, how am i "theorizing the existences of some 2d concept"? since, by your own admission, a rectangle or square cannot physically exist in our "3d universe" (that is a gross simplification, and we don't really live in a merely 3 dimensional space, but that is the term you used so i will continue to use it), would i not be 100% correct by saying that a dvd, which is a physical and very possible object in our reality, is not a square or rectangle? also, you are the first person here to mention the term "circle". not once did i write that a dvd was a circle, so you are attributing things to me that can be demonstrably proven that i did not write. maybe you should put down the bottle and get some sleep, Mikey.
