Thanks JC. Nope, haven't tried a candle yet, it was getting quite late

I don't think it will, but only because my math is sloppy. I'm hoping 
when I release the code that somebody with better coding skills will 
develop it further.....

You are very close. A black/white pigment is involved, and a preliminary 
pass to establish subsurface scattering effects is used.
