What I was going for is that instead of having to put 50 copies of that 
in my scene, I could write it once, then use object to make the copies. 
   The particular thing I was going after was a different color 
lightsource in the middle of each torus. so I could do like:

object{ MyTorus scale<.5,.5,.5> translate<4,1.25,0> Blue }
object{ MyTorus scale<.5,.5,.5> translate<0,1.25,0> Red }
object{ MyTorus scale<.5,.5,.5> translate<-4,1.25,0> Orange}

etc, so that one would have a red lightsource, one blue, and then orange
