More tests.  After testing collisions with height fields and isosurfaces, I 
wanted to test collisions with complex mesh objects.  I went to 3Dcafe to 
find an appropriate object.  I found this carnival slide (doesn't seem to 
have the author's name), and decided to test that.

I've just started building a marble machine, but it looks like it's going 
to be a lot of effort since predicting where a marble will go is not always  
obvious.

Nice None.

BTW None, I understand wishes to be unrecognized but any chance to have more
precise name of you here? I find None not very well choosen because of further
refferencing to your work. Imagine how misleading can be sentence "None did
such interesting animation" :-)

Understood.  Was being lazy when my news software asked me a bunch of 
questions: Organization, full name, e-mail, public e-mail, token, etc.  I 
will change it for future posts.

Polyphemus, the Cyclops had a similar problem with "Noman is slaying me by
guile." :-}

BTW None, I like you animations and your system looks very interesting. I hope
it will get a public airing when it is ready.
