I'm creating a city scene and a plaza is surrounded on all four sides by 
skyscrapers. These are mostly tinned glass and so reflect a lot.

My problem is that my scene is taking years to render because of all the 
reflections .. the light is bouncing down the streets from building to 
building!

Now, when I look at skyscrapers in my RL city, this doesn't happen .. 
everything just appears darkish unless the sky is actually reflecting on it.

How do I get this to happen in POVRay?
