[postgis-users] ST_GeomFromText function doubt

[Paul Alarcon]

Hello users this is my first post i have a dout using this function, i'm
newbie in postgis and try to underestand the spatial relation function.
im using the follwing query
SELECT name, the_geom,
ST_AsText(the_geom),ST_GeomFromText(ST_AsText(the_geom)) FROM
nyc_subway_stations WHERE name = 'Broad St';
but the_geom field is not the same as te ST_geomfrom text field, what is
wrong ?

Thanks a lot
