			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ski lift operators have proved that it&#8217;s not only <a href="http://www.gmilburn.ca/2009/07/16/i-see-sierpinski-shapes-by-the-sea-shore/">Conidae snails</a> who can produce the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sierpinski_triangle">Sierpinski triangle</a> in their natural environment.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.gmilburn.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/sierpenskiing.jpg"><img src="http://www.gmilburn.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/sierpenskiing-560x345.jpg" alt="" title="sierpenskiing" width="560" height="345" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2065" /></a></p>
<p>While the process of creation may not be quite as elegant as the <a href="http://www.gmilburn.ca/2008/12/02/elementary-cellular-automata/">cellular automata</a> of the Conidae snail, it certainly is not lacking in effort. If you have any information on where this photo is from please leave a comment!</p>
