Here is a cute little bit of PS that I cooked up the other day.
Postscript lends itself well to drawing optical illusions.  How about
y'all posting some.  Does anyone have any Escher? (sic)
Somewhere, I have seen an impossible nut.  I can't find a copy of it (it
was just a drawing).  It was shown in an exploded diagram for the 3
pronged impossible "fork".
Cheers
Woody
