You appeared to be unaware of this use of the word "axis", and claimed that his statement made no sense, as an axis must have two points. This is clearly wrong, as some of the dictionary definitions of axis require only a single point. He used the word correctly; you didn't understand the word in that context. Sounds like his grasp of what an "axis" is better than yours. On the limitted available evidence, he seems to have a better vocabulary than you do. The funny thing is, the whole thing was invesnted to make Bush look stupid, but in fact just made the OP look stupid. As I previously said, somewhat ironic.
