Thanks for that URL, very interesting!  I've copied parts of it to my hard 
drive for later study.

Unfortunately, the mesh didn't do much better than the bounded plane 
intersection dodecahedrons.  When plugged into my GlassSpheres scene, the 
mesh dodecs rendered in 1h3m, spheres were 1h2m, and the bounded dodecs 
were 1h13m.  Considering the fact that the bounded plane intersection 
versions are CSG-able, I can live with the slightly longer render times.

Thanks again for everyone's help!
