There was some code that used this formula:
    value = (2.0 * Noise(EPoint, TPat)) - 0.5;
and I wanted to correct it so it looked like this:
    value = (2.0 * Noise(EPoint, TPat) - 0.5);
but I goofed and pasted this in instead:
    value = (2.0 * Noise(temp, TPat) - 0.5);

The value of "temp" was undefined at this point in the funciton, so noise
was usually result.
