Tom, now you have started me worrying about tomorrow. I wish you would leave that book alone.

Remember the good book says:

1. A point is that of which there is no part.
2. A line is a widthless length.
3. A line's ends are points.
4. A straight line is one which lies evenly with the points on itself.
5. A surface is that which has only length and width.
6. The ends of a surface are lines.
7. A plane surface is one which lies evenly with the lines on it.

and this can be seen to be good.

A bow is directed to Stephen Leacock for this discovery.
