Geometry is not only about "study of the relationships between points, lines, surfaces, solids and other higher dimensional objects" since Descarte. By the 19 century - after Gauss, Riemann, Lubachevsky, and Klien - this definition would be completely anachronistic. It even more anachronistic today.--dlehavi 21:18, 3 March 2007 (CST)
