Okkkkaayyy Seems I am the only one who answered  :-[
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

Many stained-glass windows are of the arch formation. Very elegant.  8)

Arched windows are very beautiful, but I think which is better depends on what the specific window is going to be used for.

I was on a house in New Canaan Ct a very rich area the houst had a true divided light 18ft high arch window in the den it was beatiful when it went in all $18,000 worth.  within a year all the panes leaked and had to be replaced

I always liked the arched window best. My kids watched Play School during that era when Colin Buchanan, Don Spencer, Noni Hazlehurst, Monica Trapaga, Benita Collings, Simon Burke, George Spartels, Philip Quast, etc. etc. etc. were presenters. John Hamblin had us all in stitches with his campy portrayals of Jack, and also Jill, in a nursery-rhyme sketch.

I don't remember seeing a diamond window ever; is that a recent innovation?

Yeah, don't know when the last time you watched it though, I think it's been around at least 10 years.

That'd be about right, my kids discovered Cartoon Network 10-or-so years ago, and never looked back. Courage the Cowardly Dog, Grim & Evil and Dexter's Lab provided a level of thrill that Play School could not hope to match.  >:D

The diamond window wasn't around when I was a kid. I voted for the arched window. They never seemed to pick that one. It was always the round window.

I'm starting to see a pattern here. For me the arched window contained all the characteristics of the square and the round.
