Scientific paper

The results are presented of an N-body simulation which shows that it is
possible for a highly triaxial self-gravitating system in dynamical
equilibrium to exhibit stable figure rotation about its intermediate
axis. The system is long-lived, lasting at least 20 half-mass crossing
times of the final system. The nature of the simulation is summarized.
