Or how about a partially deflated ball..... what is the true width of a potoato? a Pear or a carrot....

Well the true width is a function of the shape of the object and the direction and inclination of the hole that pierced it.

This is a very informative forum and if one has been reading it for months, they have missed some very fundemental and factual information about the shape and volume of the pencil/ lens or what I call an iregularly shaped potatoe!

but I have seen no references to an oviod, stratabound structure, veins or anything else that would lend itself to being able to define a true width for any hole in respect to the overall shape..

Pretend you are at safeway and there is a very unusual potato in the bin......how would you calculate the size of it by piecing it with a needle......

You get my drift..... each hole adds to the data base as to what the shape of this potatoe is..... and if it still has the roots attached where other potatoes may be found. Every hole answers a question but does not definatively define the whole.

I think Rockaus 3 D belongs as a link on our left...... as this is very informative to every investor. It answers the frequent question of true width.... Each hole is the true width at that particular point and angle through the structure..... and each adds to the definition of volume and grade..... and that is the real question one seaks the answer to.
