Plane:

"I can't get six triangles around a vertex because their corners would add up to 360°. A 360° intersection of triangles is 'flat.' They form a theoretically and experimentally nonexistent, non-experimentally demonstrable plane which would go to 'infinity,' and could not therefore subdivide the universe, by a local conceptual system."
