I don't know if it's true that no two snowflakes are the same. I do know that they're lousy for tessellating!
I'm thinking that I should've included a snowflake-making activity. Or maybe if I'd just thought of this sooner and had more time to make it look nicer.
Deadlines ... Christmas doesn't wait.

Depends on what you consider a snow-flake, some work well for tesselation.
Koch snowlakes for instance (provided you allow for two different sizes): http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e3/Koch_similarity_tiling.svg/597px-Koch_similarity_tiling.svg.png
Thank you for that. Hadn't occurred to me, pressed for time as I was. I might have to do an update, assuming I can create on those. I'm not going to cheat and copy one of them.... Unless I get really desperate-- nope, not gonna do it. Maybe.
And you scroll this, it blinks. cool.
Blinks?
