In a message dated 98-01-15 11:06:18 EST, you write:

<< Exactly - and as a point has 0 degrees of freedom, it needs 0 dimensions
 to describe. (but n to describe _where_ it is... )
 
 So you don't need to count "the 0 dimension" when counting dimensions.
 Ok?

why not?
so you just start with the line?
according to this you dont have to count the 1st dimension either.
i think points are more fundamental than lines
degrees of freedom... points are perspective.
