To: cube-lovers@life.ai.mit.edu My memory is indeed faulty. I was incorrct about the repeated process which yields the Pons Asinorum. The process I was actually thinking of does not need a cube rotation to make it have a repeated structure. (L' R U' D)^3 There is however an interpretation of the standard Process for the Poms, which can be decomposed into a repeated process by a cube rotation. Denote by "A", turning by 120 degrees around any diagonal, it doesn't matter which one, nor in which direction. (L^2 R^2 A)^3 yields the Pons.
