flat polygon surfaces are relatively simple to define and use.  I would like
specify a curved rectangular duct with a certain curvature.  Is there an
easy way to define a curved surface given four points that pass through it?
Then check weather a point lies on that plane bounded by the points.  I can
do this already for flat surfaces.

Thank you
