OP Quote:
Not circular, since the pejorative usage of "nice" is not the same - "helical evolution", in my view, would be a more apt metaphor for this interesting phenomenon: contrary to an ellipse, a helix is not a closed curve.
Thanks. My grasp of geometry is distinctly non-Euclidean. More uselessean, actually.
