Re: GR1916 question about g=1?

Eric Gisse says...
Using Koobee-Math, which nobody but Koobee can substantiate, maybe.
But the rest of the world disagrees. I'll gladly concede the point if
you can provide one differential geometry reference which explicitly
states that the metric is a matrix.

Look, the distinction between matrices and tensors is *way* beyond
what Koobee can understand. Why are you harping on this point, which
is pretty minor compared with the gaping holes in Koobee's understanding
of the metric. He doesn't seem to even understand that the metric is
used to compute the dot-product of two vectors. In other words, he
doesn't understand *anything* about the metric. He doesn't understand
that it is used in computing scalar products, or lengths, or areas,
or proper times. He's an idiot.
