I confess that I agree, but now is probably a good time to thank everyone
who has developed POV-Ray for their effort.  Assuming most of the
developers have a life outside of this, it's all the more impressive.  That
said, subsurface scattering sure would be a great addition.  I know media is
more robust, but I can never get that to work right.  Oh, and someone has
already implemented this in POV-Ray, but it's probably not for sharing
(look at the last line):
