You are Charles Danials and I claim my ten pounds.

In-joke for a completely different group, where he's a character. A
real one.

Anyway - what IS a "Rational B-Spline"? Will it debate the pros and
cons of various techniques to model a specific item, or is in fact not
able to converse rationally?

"Oh no, you don't wanna do that. Sure you can do it with a torus if
you tweak this and that, add a few blobs and cut way that bit over
there - but I'd recommend using B-Splines, I really would".
