Please post your source code, Allen.  You may have inadvertantly run
across the feature in POV-Ray that encloses everything in a large Black
Bounding Box to protect the image constituents from being distorted as
they are created.  Freshly created objects, while they are still at <0,
0, 0> are subject to phase distortion from the inability of POV-Ray to
incorporate the Infinite Improbability Algorhythm inside MS Foundation
Class (including the entire trilogy AND the Mule).

This, as you are aware, is a function of the derived quadratic that
controls such instantiations as "Where is that stooped and mealy
coloured old man I used to call Papa when the Merry-Go-Round broke
Down?" and any RGB value above 0xFFFFE00A0000.

Is this clear?
