Yes, I do... at the very moment, I'm sitting at the Kabul 1:100,000 
heightfield (equalling about 12.5 metres from pixel to pixel) and pixel 
my way along the mountain chain bordering the city in the southeast...

Automatic contour line interpolation is something too difficult for me, 
at least for the time being (I tried to write a C++ program to do this 
last autumn, but the results were far from satisfying), and even with 
the best interpolation program, manual post-processing would be 
necessary - which also means programming a special editor for 16-bit 
POV-Ray heightfields!

As neither extreme longevity (1000 years or longer) nor collaborators in 
the POV-Ray (and, later on, X3D/OpenGL) community are in sight, I 
probably have to instill the love of Afghanistan and programming in my 
little nephew, who just turned 3 years old in February... (and who is 
really fond of his weird fat long-haired bearded uncle...)!

See you in Khyberspace!
