That was exactly how it came into the conversation in my calc class. Its creator asked my teacher if it could be considered a Moebius strip, and he said no, so we called it a Nesbit Ring. I'll create one tomorrow and post a picture so you can see, in real terms, exactly what I mean.

Also, I never thought I'd say this, but thank you, russ, for bringing some ACTUAL on-topic discussion to the thread.
