So, in other news, here is a picture of the cheese counter from the little artisan grocer a few blocks from where I live:



The aroma when you walk past that is intoxicating- I sometimes duck into the store just to walk past that counter. And yes, the man behind the cheese, his sole job is, in fact, to stand there and be knowledgeable about cheese. Those two swords hanging from the ceiling in front of him? They're not for decoration. They're for carving the huge cheese wheels in the glass case behind him.

Found this on the interwebz, and after some thought seems to make sense:

"...it only looks like a hexagon. And it is only weird if you ignore the context in which it occurs (i.e. centred on the pole) In fact, it's simply a oscillatory wave in polar coordinates.

If you set up a standing wave in a circular swimming pool (say, by jumping up and down at just the right speed), you will get waves that form a similar symmetrical pattern. Speed up and the waves get smaller, forming a finer pattern.

Likewise on Saturn. If the winds sped up, you'd start seeing a standing wave with 7 crests or 8 or 9 (though I'm not sure if odd numbers are stable). The winds slow down and you see a standing wave with 5 or 4 crests."

Mod Edit:
