Yes, that was the sort of ambiguity I was origially thinking of.  I had 
intended to display the hominid along with a quote from my daughter:

"You mean in a million years, when they find my bones, they'll think I 
look like a monkey?"

BTW I know you are working on a mesh modeller.  I am generating the hair 
direction in POV by tracing splines along the surface of the figure.  In 
this picture I used the trace function.  In my next try I want to use 
the fact that Wings allows you to assign materials to individual polys. 
  So when I export to .obj, I can use this to parse out a hand drawn 
sequence of vertices and their normals.  It would be easier to be able 
to merely export selected vertices and their normals to a text file, 
then POV it from there.
