        My co-workers all got a laugh out of it.  The whole idea was
to come up with truly strange meals out of combinations of components
of ordinary meals.  The day after I posted it, I looked on the menu
and saw something that the script had come up with the day before!
Funny!

        The Chris Colefax city include taught me all I know.  It is a
wonderful collection of files to read for instruction on the
possibilities of povray as a programming tool.
        Yeah.  Word wrap stinks.  When I read the message after it
was posted, it came up on my newsreader as double spaced!  DOh!

        Hmm: the meals are not supposed to be appatising.  I mean, do you
really want a "marinated blackened salad omelete" or a "glazed taco"?
        So I guess you were able to get it to work despite the
word wrap problems?  Feel free to tweak and spread the .pov if you find
it useful.
