Letter: Letters: Mandelbrot pop

Published 9 November 1991

From P. S. MANNING

Regarding the Mandelbrot cornflake (Letters, 28 September and 12 October):
it follows that if a Mandelbrot cornflake is the self-same at all scales,
then the Universe originated not with a big bang but a snap, crackle and
pop.
