We've now seen the ingredients of the classification result which leads
to essentially only 7 possible symmetry groups. Think a little about

reflections along perpendicular mirrors gives not a reflection but ...?
Experiment some with kali and see if you can identify which of these symmetries
are showing up. Try some of the parts (e.g. exercises) at
