Yeah, that's in the sampling. Since I'm just using the default effects right
now (an "effect" being a chunk of graphics pipeline code, vertex and pixel
shaders) I'm not certain what technique it might be using. I would have to
rewrite that (which I plan to eventually do anyway if I can think of how to
make the actual gameplay interesting ;-), so I'll try different ones then.

I'll do that. It sounds like the quad filters are different weightings on
the lerping, sort of like an AA approach.

OK. I'll have to look again, because it seemed ... obviously blurry to me.
I'll see about getting some screen shots, probably some time next week at
the earliest.
