Who said anything by a "triangle"?? In geometry, a tetrahedron (plural: tetrahedra or tetrahedrons) is a polyhedron composed of four triangular faces, six straight edges, and four vertex corners. ain't you missing one side, (or was you cutting classes that day?)? It's the end of the road for you, isn't it? and btw, this idea that the universe/space/time is..infinitysium is just an ...assumption.
