Yeah - I just got around to reading through his code before to see that that's
what he was actually doing.  I had a hard time implementing it from scratch, as
I'm still struggling with the context and syntax for using patterns in
functions.

POV-Ray didn't like this:
density {
     function {pattern {
          object {Intersector
               color_map {
                    [0.0 rgb 0]
                    [0.5 rgb 0]
                    [0.5 rgb 1]
                    [1.0 rgb 1]
                }
           }}
     }
}

Surely you jest.   But we got a storm front in last night that whisked away
everything in a sudden downpour.   LOTS cooler at the moment.  (crossing
fingers)


Hoping you work this out - the idea seems very cool, and I'm _really_ looking
forward to seeing the animation!
