Having capitulated to the angry gods of HTML hell,
and given up on making cute color ASCII diagrams,
I've placed a (previously created, different, and much
more viewable) version of "The Prime Duodala" in the
Files section of this group, in the J Gill folder.

I hope that you find it to be aesthetically interesting.

More to come regarding its theoretical significance...

Cryptically yours, J Gill

Blood, sweat, and tears:

(1) Ink pens, old straightedges, and graph paper
while sitting croos-legged in bed for hours, and
getting sore knees for it;

(2) Cheap scanner my girlfriend gave me,
(".PSP" or ".TIF" file extensions);

(3) PaintShop Pro 5.03 (the Adobe stuff still
drives me nuts with it's non-straightforward-ness);

(4) Hours of diddling around with it until the
"neurotic perfectionist" in me finally was placated;

(5) Resizing the (up to 100 MB) source file;

(6) Conversion to ".GIF";

(7) Final color "touch-up" ("brush width" is wider
once the filesize is reduced, allowing the *larger*
strokes of color touch-up to proceed efficiently,
only *after* doing the "fine" color touch-up on
the larger source file, which allows fine "detail"
work. Cover the small stuff. Reduce in size. Then
cover the larger, broader strokes of color "touch-up".
