Melzak [2] has shown that there exists a convex pseudopolyhedron Q (the convex hull of a convergent sequence of points together with its limit point) in E3 which is s-universal for triangles, that is, all possible triangles occur (up to similarity) as plane sections of Q. He conjectured that no polyhedron P has this property. In this short note we give an elementary proof of this conjecture.
