However: an "axis" is a single thing -- "the x axis". "axes" is the plural of axis, so when you have a thing with both an x and y axis, is is an "axes". -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception Chr...@no... |
