   Cripes... you're CORRECT of course in your above statement.
Are you a mathematician by any chance... or simply a native genius?
Allow me to retract my previous ad homs directed towards you.
This singular piece of common sense is worthy refutation of a
thousand insults...
  I am very grateful to you for pointing out this simple piece of common
sense which Mssr. Dhemmeog, mathematican and author of "many
Phys. Rev. A mathematical papers" seems unable to comprehend and
continues to insult my common sense about it.
George Hammond

PS: you might be interested to know Einstein agrees with you also:

[Hammond... in response to Dhemmeog]
 Einstein clearly states the CAUSAL EFFECT of the metric
on the configuration (shape) of the n points defining a simple
(pologonal) object on page 8 of his book _The Meaning of Relativity_
where he says:

--------Einstein quote ibid page 8-------------------
"That Euclidean geometry (the Euclidean Metric)... affirms something
more than mere deductions derived from definitions may be seen
from the following simple consideration: There are n(n-1)/2 distances
between n points in space.... the metric furnishes n(n-1)/2 equations
for these distances in terms of the 3n coordinates of the points. But
the 3n coordinates may be elimintated from these equations leaving
at least n(n-1)/2 - 3n * equations between the distances themselves.
  Since these distances are real measurable quantities and by definition
are independent of each other, these relations between the distances
are NOT NECCESSARY A PRIORI."

* In reality there are n(n-1)/2 - 3n + 6 equations

--------- end quote-------------------

Here Einstein is clearly telling us that the impostion of a
METRIC on a space physically affects (e.g. determines)
the CONFIGURATION that may be assumed by any N points
pologonally connected. The configuration (shapes) of the
pologonal figures are "determined by the metric".
