Thanks, you set me on right track. Here is the solution.  Absorb "0"
where your density is "empty", "1" where there is "something."  The code
below is "not art yet," but it is the effect I was searching for...


media {
   intervals 10
   emission rgb 1   samples 2, 100     confidence 0.9999   variance
1/1000   ratio 0.9
   density {
     color_map{
        [0.0 rgb <0,0,0.0>]
        [0.5 rgb <0,0,0.0>]
        [0.851 rgb <0.8, 0.18, 0.04>/2]
        [1.0 rgbt <1,.61,.1>]
      }
      scale 5
    }
 }
 media {
   intervals 10
   absorption rgb 1 samples 2, 100  confidence 0.9999   variance
1/1000   ratio 0.9
  density {
        bumps
        color_map{
        [0.0 rgb 0]
        [0.5 rgb 0]
        [0.851 rgb 1 ]
       [1.0 rgbt 1 ]      }
      scale 5
    }
 }
