Just found this... Because there are often questions about the
professional uses of POV, here is an example.
The architectural school of Marseilles uses Povray as a learning tool
for its first year students (second year students use Radiance). They
have to make a whole project in POV, for instance a re-creation of a
whole street. Interesting pictures there (no source code) and examples
about how the students manage their projects. There's also a 114-slide
tutorial in French for download (PDF).

Aren't we all? That's the one thing I hate about time the most.

Ineteresting thought I just had...
what will the life expectancy of a child born in say 2050 be considering
the pace of technological development and the recent and probable future
discoveries of medical science.

Last thing I heard is that unless there is a genetic breakthrough, 150
is about it. Something about the maximum number of times a cell will replace
itself. Recent hormone information leads one to think that much more of our
life will be spent in better health (at least where technology is
available). Example: "Old People Skin" (i.e.: dry, slow to heal) is 90%
hormonal. Presently too risky to fix with replacement therapy, but in the
future?
Disclaimer: Most of my info on this is ~10 years out of date.

I remember reading a quote from a futurist: "The man who will live forever
has already been born."
Quite remarkable, even when you consider it's from the 70s.
I plan to live forever, and so far, so good!

Yes. Their big idea now is to make a virus that changes the regulatory gene
(which controls mitosis).

They've found the breakthrough: an enzyme that repairs the ends of DNA
strands. The only problem with it is that activating this enzyme will
increas the chance that you will get cancer.

This can be said of everyone, yes?
I look forward to you and work getting wiser.
Thanks for the URL.
