    But your reasoning has a fatal flaw; it overlooks the fact that to comprehend it requires that one rub a few brain cells against each other. The heat thus generated produces the light that illuminates the fact, but alas, not everybody has the resource required to fuel the process --SG

    That is some seriously good looking spinning stick there. Well done. I'm sure that if you post the pics on Sealine, you'll get more orders than you can handle
