Plus quartz has way more than 6 facets.

The ideal quartz crystal has 6 sides.
I clearly wrote that quartz has more than 6 facets, since a quartz crystal has a pyramidal top section of 6 sides if single terminated, and double that number if double terminated.

the faceted pyramidal structure also clearly faces the sides.

Zero, according to GK.

Answer: Two.
How many sides on this:

Exceptions prove the rule.

When we would walk up to a house an someone says this house has six sides, one would immediately assume the shape is a hexagon. No one considers the roof or floor as a 'side'
No so for a crystal, where the shape of a quartz crystal has those ideally pointed at each end, then the futed middle.
So Geoff i agree with them, your wrong on the crystal, and the house is a red herring.
Now if I lived in a red herring, where would i put my stereo?
Who is in charge of determining what the "roof" of a crystal is?
If you place a crystal on a table lengthwise, would the uppermost facet no longer count as a side because then it would be the top, like a roof, which is not a side?
Then, of course, the bottom facet would no longer be a side because who counts the bottom of a house as a side?
:)
Then, the pointy faceted sides would become actual sides....but how many sides would they count as?
You'd need a Herring aid, too.
Too much is never enough
I wonder if there would be any agrement on that.
The obvious answer is two; but geoff may say four, and you may say six.
would be right only in one case..... Unfortunately with a quartz crystal, the pyramid shaped top has 6 facets. So in terms of an Egyptian pyramid, does that mean that it has no sides as gk seems to imply?
Stu
For which geoffie seems to be setting the bar with regard to all three.
By the way....
We gotta remember to keep all posts at a prime number of symbols, or we'll bring down everybody's sound quality.
