Ok, cool.  Thanks for the explanation, Dave.  I'll check out your scene
file as well.
    I'm from Minnesota too, by Lake Minnetonka (a bit west of
Minneapolis), although I'm in Ohio for the fall.  I'm actually learning
about some elements of wind power generation, in that I'm working with
composite materials and reading about their applications in wind turbine
blades.  It's cool stuff.
    Yeah, I also wish I could have had a teacher who put so much work
into their examples.  It's kind of sad watching them try futilely to
draw such things on a blackboard.
