 Finally we show that the action maps defined above are independent of
 the choice of metric (up to iterated homotopy).

-\begin{itemize}
-\item Independence of metric, $\ep_i$, $\delta_i$:
-For a different metric etc. let $\hat{G}^{i,m}$ denote the alternate subcomplexes
-and $\hat{N}_{i,l}$ the alternate neighborhoods.
-Main idea is that for all $i$ there exists sufficiently large $k$ such that
-$\hat{N}_{k,l} \sub N_{i,l}$, and similarly with the roles of $N$ and $\hat{N}$ reversed.

+The arguments are very similar to ones given above, so we only sketch them.
+Let $g$ and $g'$ be two metrics on $X$, and let $e$ and $e'$ be the corresponding
+actions $CH_*(X, X) \ot \bc_*(X)\to\bc_*(X)$.
+We must show that $e$ and $e'$ are homotopic.
+As outlined in the discussion preceding this proof,
+this follows from the facts that both $e$ and $e'$ are compatible
+with gluing and that $\bc_*(B^n)$ is contractible.
+As above, we define a subcomplex $F_*\sub  CH_*(X, X) \ot \bc_*(X)$ generated
+by $p\ot b$ such that $|p|\cup|b|$ is contained in a disjoint union of balls.
+Using acyclic models, we can construct a homotopy from $e$ to $e'$ on $F_*$.
+We now observe that $CH_*(X, X) \ot \bc_*(X)$ retracts to $F_*$.
+Similar arguments show that this homotopy from $e$ to $e'$ is well-defined
+up to second order homotopy, and so on.
