Hi David Darn Sarf - no chance, Spent most of the day on the phone helping mother sort out Dad's situation. He had a fall a couple of days ago, back from hospital with stichted up forehead and hand (he fell on a glass he was carrying and thank goodness it wasn't worse ) and we arranged, with the doctor's help, to get him admitted to a rehabilitation centre for physical therapy. Looks like he'll be there for three weeks. It's been a busy day but rest assured I was in my underpants and the lager can was not far from my side. Cheers (burp).

I know it's one of the Platonic solids, YB (which is also why it's a die shape, QED). But not directly how it relates to quintessence. I'm thinking gin, Aperol, dry vermouth, orange bitters for the Quintessence? Maybe add a soda float?

HH: The ol' Greeks had 4 elements and 5 favorite hapes. And so this led to the idea that the shape of the atoms caused their properties. Fire was tetrahedral (pointy). Earth was cubes (stacks nicely). Water was icosadedron a.k.a. D20 because they roll and flow. And air was an octahedron, I don't remember why.
