Thank you very much for the appreciation! There was a time that I wasn't
so useful to this list...

I also find it gratifying (in a sick way, no doubt ) that the very
day I took BEAM Heretics off-line for restructuring someone asked where
they could get the graphics for the hextiles. Actually doubly so, because
I had scanned in Mark Tilden's tiles directly and drafted graphics on top
of them primarily to help me understand what was going on -- I'm very glad
that they are useful to others.

Those graphics are back on the BEAM Heretics site, but you'll now find them
navigating via BEAM Heretics: BEAM People: Mark Tilden: Hextiles. I
haven't posted the corrections & legend that are necessary to make those
drawings really useful but expect to do so soon. I have also placed
duplicates of the photocopies of Mark's patent under his section (obtained
from the IBM Intellectual Property Network) as well as some other
information. Finally, you'll find some stuff I did under the Zozzles T.
Freep section -- and you may add sections for yourselves (or add to the
sections I've already started) if you wish.

I am certainly open to suggestions as to the architecture of the site.


Happy BEAMing!

Zoz
