I will certainly check it out. I thought it was interesting that Pixar
has the same effect on him as it does on me. I have to tell myself, "I
am one guy. At the end of a Pixar movie, there are thousands credited to
the project. I fill all of those roles myself (except Production
Babies), so I'm not doing too bad".

You must have wondered why I was wasting 2:02 on the opening credits,
before anything happens. :)

One interesting thing, musicians count 1-2-3-4 and for POV-Ray, the
beats are 0-1-2-3. This kills me. I have a macro that gives me clock
from a measure/beat number:
#declare LookToKitchenMoveStart = Measure(210,2);
and I am constantly thinking '3' is the middle of a measure. I shall
never get used to this.

The incrementing numbers line up to my storyboard:
