In a Radiosity scene is it possible to have media give off light and if so,
how?

Media can affect radiosity (media "illuminates" other objects around), but 
radiosity cannot affect media (other objects will not "illuminate" the 
media). (Or was it the other way round?)

A similar question: do photons affect radiosity?

In other words, if I have a bright spot (caustics) generated by photons, 
will this bright zone illuminate surrounding objects with radiosity?
