I have to "thoroughly"(?) disagree with that!

Yes, and the wing of the one in flight look strangely flexible. But you 
still have 33 days to go :)

It would be nice if object could be excluded from radiosity, or maybe 
better if it could have an other colour for the radiosity calculation than 
its real colour.
For the skysphere, maybe start with a white sphere, stop the rendering 
after the pre-trace, save the data, start the render again with a blue 
sphere. Again stop/pause it after the pre-trace, delete the radiosity data 
and put in the saved data. Havn't tried it, so no idea wether it works or 
gives the desired result.
