    I just looked at it and it's not you, it's the sample code. They seem to
have forgotten to use the "open" command after the point list. That leaves a
cap on the surface which is reflecting the bluish gray background.

    <3.0,  10.0>,
    <4.0,  11.0>
    open

    ^^^^ add that and it should help.
