Well, a line has no thickness

If you talk to my wife, the paint chemist, she will call you out on that one. A painted line most certainly has a thickness (although it's usually measured in microns). I guess I was just wondering how many gallons it would take to make a line several feet thick?

(speaking geometry here)
No line has thickness, painted or otherwise. In fact, if it is a line, it has no end. The standard
sideline is really a 2" x 84' rectangle. The inside edge of it is an 84' line segment. That painted line is actually a rectangular solid: it has length, width, and thickness.
