Hello Andy Cocker from York, England.


  First off, I am a Pov snob. I don't use no stinking modeling program
to create my scenes and I don't indent my scene files like them wacky,
propeller headed, Poindexter, pocket pen pouch carrying, programmer types.

  So with that over with let me introduce myself...

  I am simply referred to around here as Ken and this suits me just fine.
I live on the west coast of North America, the state of California,
approximatly 50 miles (80.45km) south of HollyWood, approximatly 80 miles
(128.72km) north of the Mexico border, and just 10 minutes away from the
original Disneyland, home of Mickey Mouse. I'm also 10 minutes away from
some of the best beaches anywhere in the US and I live smack in the middle
of a high technology, electronics development, and manufacturing region.
It's not paridise but it sure ain't lovely downtown Bagdad either.

Well, lurking here for the past 2 months from Singapore - South East Asia (my first
message here).

Why is it *everyone* (including me) now has a FreeServe account?
(ok, apart from the 15 megs web space, unlimited e-mail addresses, and being
the UK's first 100% free ISP with only the cost of a local call, and with 1
million subscribers since its September '98 launch  ;)

Have fun POVing,


Matt

I am one of those propeller headed poindexter's Ken is talking about
(wasn't there that "Mr. Tyler" era a few weeks back?) who likes to
indent (apparently in a cockeyed fashion, though I must admit that
charge carries some weight...) but Ken let's me hang around because
sometimes I help him with his math, or create generally useless but neat
looking functions.  Oh...I'm currently at College going to the
University of Virginia which is located in Charlottesville, VA about 50
minutes from the capital Richmond, or 2 hours from my home in
Centreville (part of what is called NoVa or Northern Virginia).

Whoa, I see the soul of the newsgroup has answered(mr Tyler, ken, great
high lord...) so I'll just add in.

I'm currently in Helsingborg, Sweden. A very cold climate, (I'm freezing
now:-) and a very wet and windy one is characteristic for this town. I
dislike it(hate was to strong a word).
I'm basicly a coder, doing most of the langauages avaiable. I was
attracted to POV by the same reason, I could code 3D scenes in it, far
easier than doing the 3D gfx programming I had before. And, it was
interesting to use, I could tweak it really good. 
I've never liked any modeller, since they can't do what I want them to
do when I want to. Why this is, is because I don't get the time or
patience of learning any modeller good enough to become as skiled(?)
there as I am(?) in coding.

I'm a student in the university, Software engineering.

Howdy neigbor. Seems you are right next door. I'm in Tustin at the 5 - 55
freeway interchange. For you people that look at the map follow the arrow
point past the big 405 emblem up and to the right just a little bit and you
will see a town marked Tustin. The town is so small compared to the other
cities in the area I usualy don't even bother calling it by name because
most map makers ignore it's exsistance.
