Would a polar bear be considered a rectilinear bear who has
had his coordinates translated ?

If a man merges polygons would he be guilty of polygamy ?

Just curious.

A polar bear would be a rectilinear bear who has had his coordinates
transformed.  Translation would only retain rectilinerarity at a different
point in space.

Maybe rectilinear bears are transformed polar bears.
Could be.
Sounds like a painful proces anyway. And very confusing trying to walk with 
all your coordinates screwed up. :(

So did you ever try moddeling with polar coordinates or do they freeze your 
brain too ?
