i'm not sure what you mean by discrete.
SO(3) (the group of rotations) is not discrete in any sense i can think of.
some groups have a discrete topology, but not all by any means... are you referring to cayley's theorem?

In other news, (bad) pun threads have come to hacker news. I guess it was always a matter of time.
