oops, I think you meant my reference to rounder in my prior post. I meant when viewed from the front, as the wind sees it. the top and bottom are 12" radius circles rather than 6" radius connected by a flat. given the same height, this yields a slightly smaller frontal area even with the larger width. up to a certain height.
