Here is the source for the swarm posted to p.b.a a few
minutes ago.  I generate the points using Java and then
display them with a simple POV program.

Note that I hand-coded a 3 dimensional vector class and
an interpolating spline class for this project.  I will now
go looking at the Java3D package to see if I can pick up
something better and reduce the amount of custom poo...

There are some exciting yet undocumented relationships
between some of the control parameters in this stuff... I
hope you can figure it out.

Enjoy

ps: I have completely ignore any and all postings about
the "correct" way to indent code.  Since I have been at
this for about 20 years now as my full time occupation I
am kinda stuck in my ways and actually like this strange
yet readable use of whitespace.
