Tustin is actualy about 10 miles north of the El Tore marine base.
In Tustin itself is the Marine Air Corps helicopter division stationed
where the old WW II blimp hagers are. Both the Tustin Base and El Toro
are slated for closure very soon and local communities are scrambling
around trying to think up ways to capitolize on all of that valuable
real estate that is going to be released into their custody. There is
a very large contingent of people that would like to turn the El Toro
site into a new international airport to help relieve traffic at John
Wayne and Los Angeleus International but that is still down the road
a few years. The military has been dumping jet fuels and who knows
what else into the soil around there for over 50 years now and it has
been elevated to a superfund toxic cleanup site. I see a couple of
years at least to take care of soil remediation and detoxification
testing for all of the downstream water supplies and aquafiers.

Anyway this is about as much off topic posting I care to be envolved in.

I'm Roland Mas.  I'm from the Southern part of France, although I
currently am in school in Paris.

  I have used POV-Ray since it was called DKB-Trace 2.12, from the
very 1.0 on my Atari ST to the very 3.0 on the
eight-Alpha-600-MHz-4-Go-RAM I had (well, I had access to it) during
my internship.  (Still waiting for the 3.1, by the way.)

  I do not use any modeller.  My brain is my favourite modeller.  I do
not indent my code, either.  Emacs does it for me.  Sometimes even
bash or Perl do it for me, but I do not see it because it is piped
directly to POV-Ray.

  Have fun...

Roland.

Wouldn't you just pronounce it ram-ss-t? Still, I can see why trying to say
the letters "mst" together at the end  would be a problem for some native
English speakers (me included ;)  Still - that's one of the advantages of
the net - you don't *have* to pronounce it :)
