The toroid

Fascinating shape.
Many believe to be the shape of energy in its most basic form.
The atom, our aura, earth's energy field, even the universe.
And most things in-between.
Crop circles even depict 2d renderings of the toroid.
Some of you electrical folks have heard of the toroidal transformer.

Is this a Dan Brown sort of thing? Toroid -> shape of energy -> universal truth

Or, to translate to Homer Simpson: Donut = Self Actualization

Mmm donuts!!
Full of energy.

A solar system rotates around a black hole.
Some believe the black hole is the innie of the toroid.
We are on the approach.
The white hole is the other side.

Did he really say that?
He was probably right, again.

Now you're just saying random things and attributing it to "some people". A safe way not get blamed for saying random things yourself.

"I didn't say that random thing, 'some people' said it, I just reported it!"
