Yea, Bucky was a real original thinker, though his Dymaxion map projection
is scorned by the professional cartographers, I have always liked its
simplicity, and equality of all land mass distortions.

Like any projection, it has its distortions, but they are uniform, and
inevitable when projecting a sphere onto a flat surface.
