So how come GoogleBots that scour the internet with their crawlers
gathering information are justified?
Just because a different website and its servers have open their httpd
ports doesn't mean its legal
for Google to gather their content. So Mr. sashimi you've contradicted
yourself.

"Coordinate Spaces and Transformations
Applications use coordinate spaces and transformations to scale,
rotate, translate, shear, and reflect graphics output. A coordinate
space is a planar space that locates two-dimensional objects by using
two reference axes that are perpendicular to each other. There are
four coordinate spaces: world, page, device, and physical device
(client area, desktop, or page of printer paper).
A transformation is an algorithm that alters ("transforms") the size,
orientation, and shape of objects. Transformations also transfer a
graphics object from one coordinate space to another. Ultimately, the
object appears on the physical device, which is usually a screen or
printer.
This chapter is divided into three topics:
* About Coordinate Spaces and Transformations
* Using Coordinate Spaces and Transformations
* Coordinate Space and Transformation Reference

That's what I was trying to explain to them. Because so many out there
try to lump in that unneeded additional information.

You are the reason I'm on the defensive.
Please read what I said in entirely in context no skimming.
