Ira,
All I know is -- we did L shaped layouts in 2010 and 2011 at Garden Ridge and everybody seemed to enjoy them and they fit the space. If we're getting less space and only a 6 X 2 with 90 degree corners will fit then so be it. Just trying to help.
As for your statement, "you apparently don't understand the geometry of layouts." I admit to being part of the "great unwashed." After all, all I have is bachelors and masters degrees in engineering. So, a topic as complex as layout geometry is probably beyond my abilities. Thankfully, we have you to carry this heavy burden. And thanks for the lesson.
See ya' at setup
Bill
