Boids made my cry (Stella and Stanley) when I saw it on Mind's Eye !  Thanks for
the link! Now, I'm dying to try an animation of my own!

In thinking about how to undertake such a project, I guess that one would need to
have information processed in one frame to be available in the next frame.   Most
of the algorithms talk about each individual's properties being a moving average
of those of the collective.

I know that Povray 3.1 has the ability to write and read files.  Is there any way
for 3.02 to have a variable declaration made in one frame available to the next
frame?
