Snowflake CA

It's that time of year again, where I start seeing square snowflakes cut from paper in various places. Snowflakes are hexagonal.

I remember in second grade, this drove me crazy, even as a kid. The teacher tried showing the class how to make a square snowflake, and I objected even then. I demonstrated how to fold and cut a hexagonal snowflake. The teacher scoffed, and gave everyone a choice between her snowflakes, and "Eddie snowflakes". The rest of the class went with her. Undaunted, I made lots and lots of hexagonal snowflakes. Thousands of them. For about two weeks, I did little else. Every day, I had fifty more snowflakes for the teacher.

Anyways -- attached is a CA snowflake program.
