  Cool, that worked:

    camera {
        location <-1.25, 1.25, -2> + <1.25*clock2, -1.25*clock2, 0>
        look_at <0, 0, 0>
    }

  you can check out the fixed version here:

  Yes, I know that.  What I was thinking when I did that is that
perhaps povray wasn't seeing the translate line unless I put a clock
variable there, so it wouldn't hurt anything to put one there since I
wanted the camera to look at 0,0,0 anyways.

thanks for your help
