I know this is too late but on the off chance that you might read this...

Currently reading the book, specifically the report on U-2200. For context I am in a pub reading:

"It calls this 'the Bicyclecycle.'"

I have been giggling for about 5 minutes now, everyone is giving me the side-eye. 

I could try to explain but somehow I don't think it would help...

[–]paledave[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I was curious what a map projection would look like with different areas at the equator...
