http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idoru
An idoru is a hyperreal image . Designed to trigger all your little checkpoins .
The systems know at very deep levels that successful systems are Fat .
Hence Bhuddai and Father Chrstmas .
Fat Icons are really scarce . Very valuable .
But don't worry . Soon demand will create supply .
Look at computer graphical icons . The middle is broadening .
The optimal shape will be like a spindle .
Fat .
The usual human ratio's of middle to hip would apply .
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waist%E2%80%93hip_ratio
But the trick is to invert it .
A waist 1/0.75 = 1.333 will be an Idoru .
What do you know . This is the reserve of humans .
The Buddhai embodies the reserves of an entire civilization .
Amazing what a fat belly can do .
What does this mean ?
A waist/hip ratio =0.75 (the default )is good but a ratio of 1.3333 is just as good (a bit narrow in small fluctuations) .
You can work out your own ratios . But remember , there are two solutions .
Fat idoru's strikes again !
Rubens sneers at thin !
