I might be old, I might have gone to school in the Dark Ages, but a point cannot have an incline. "A spatial point describes a specific object within a given space that consists of neither volume area or length, nor any other higher dimensional analogue. Thus a point is a zero dimensional object." Oh, the writer of Wikipedia "point geometry" agrees with me. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_(geometry) A way can have an incline, but it needs a three dimensional description. Please remove from the wiki all the efforts of the "failed_mathematics" group at trying to describe a point with an incline, because it is rubbish.
