Hi Antonio,

Can you explain the cross section geometry of the infinitely thin rings?
Are they just filimentry.  Also, what about tapes and the orientation
relative to the surface of a toroid (or sphere)?

PS: I got cynwin downloaded.  As soon as I get the unix emulator configured,
maybe,  I can start writing some code.
