Hey, Thanks for taking a look at it.

I thought I tested it before I zapped it off, but must have introduced a
typo while I was preparing a simple version to show the problem.

If you set the problem number 1, you get Jaime's *beautiful* non-media
clouds.  This turns off the fog.
If you set the problem number to 2, both the clouds and the fog are
activated.  Even if you move the camera out of the ground fog, the clouds
have turned to crap.  I tried making them hollow.  no luck.  They are now
dark, nasty and drama-less.  How does fog do this to the clouds?

If you set the problem number to 3, it turns off his clouds, but leaves the
fog on. This was mainly so I could assemble the rest of the scene and see
what I was doing.  But, as you've said, this is broken.

I'm not worried about the water texture yet; I'll address that later.
