T - this
I - is
N - not
A - a
Che - checkered
P - plane

"this is not a checkered plane"

relates too the raytracing penchant for using checkered planes
as a setting for display of modelled objects.  It is thought of
as neutral, and possibly a scaling device.  So the topic suggestion 
might be thought of as a plea for artists to get as far away as
possible from this particular crutch?

also to the POV community's tradition of contributors
to p.b.images first posting a
scene of a reflective sphere over a checkered plane as a
kind of rite if passage, mild hazing, or social protocol
before going on to post other scenes.  Over the years
these first posts have shown a lot of inventiveness so the
topic maybe in part the idea of preserving the spirit of inventiveness
without the traditional form, or somehow inversing the
traditional restriction?
