Whow, And I thought Moebius only created a drive-belt that laste
twice as long at the original type (It had only one side)
I am not sure  about who created it, I am sure that Esher drew the
best.
( He done more tricks like these, the window below aswell )

Who the H... is Roger Penrose? Has he done more stuff like this?
(Send me some ISBN of a book that contains his work...thanks!)

I posted a Triangle like above last week...I'll include it here
again (For collectors) done in VI (On my little linux)
