If two lines are given parametrically by {u0 + su} and {v0 + tv} for (s,t) in R^2, vectors u0, v0, and unit vectors u, v, then the distance between the lines is just (setting w0 = u0-v0) |w0 * u x v|, or am I missing something? --Dan ________________________________________________________________________________________ "Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend.
