Obviously you and others have been very busy!

I hadn't seen the pavement patterns yet (that I could recall) so when looking
for a sample scene, not finding one, I thought the templates subfolders were
empty since no pov file showed up trying File|Open.

That had me looking at the actual subfolders to finally see everything via web
browser!

Almost speechless. Wow. Simply wow. I had no idea that much work had been done
on the documentation and examples. I was probably about to start a long hiatus
from POV-Ray during the time these things were beginning to develop for online
help.

Using POV less, mainly to keep a couple graphical charts going, is boring.
There's so much more to it!
Thanks to C. Lipka for getting me into UberPOV recently when I noticed it being
talked about.
Oh, and thanks for that Penrose explanation. I had seen something on TV about it
years ago, so knew of the person/name, but only remembered it as a geometric
curiosity.

A tremendous thanks to all for the efforts.

Bob
