ok, maybe I'm just dense (pun intended)
But I added the 2 densities and my media effect disappeared while the sky was still
white.

This is my media

	media {
	  intervals 20
	  scattering { 4, rgb 0.01 }
	  samples 2, 10
	  confidence 0.9999
	  variance 1/1000
	  ratio 0.9
//	  density {planar scale y*5 }
//	  density {granite scale 0.1}
	}

The two // lines are the ones I added.
