In [2] the author introduced a self-polar double-N(“CD”): this double-N is associated with a pair of very specially related (“-related”) normal rational curves, in that the spaces Hi, of one row of the double-N are chordal to one of the curves while the spaces Ki of the other row are chordal to the other curve. The double-N might be said to be “associated with” the triple consisting of these two curves and the polarizing quadric.
