It's cool since Rudolfo Rastaman Rainderius was only making a cameo
appearance as part of a publicity stunt.

I'd like to comment that I DID in fact pick up on the Mirrored sphere
over checkered plane motif... I was just reading through the responses
to see if anyone else had picked it up before I left the 10th message on
the topic.  I am quite surprised myself.

I wish I had an Uncle like you...then again, my dad was pretty cutting

My Dad still manages to keep me on my toes when we are together. It would
certainly have been different had we the vast resources available to
the present day generation. Kids these days just don't know how lucky
they really are to have been born in this time period and it's only going
to get better with the passage of time.

  That is until all of the earths resources run out and the dark times
of humanity return us to a more earth/nature based society.

This is a really good one!

It's great to see a "first" that is not either some planet (usually with
some atempt at rings) hanging in space or some reflecting objects hovering
over a checkered plane (doh!) ;-)

I like the usage of the fog, it makes the whole thing look sort of
surrealistic.

Stick to it Mike!
Just don't ever talk to your uncle about "indentation" and instead learn the
proper way right from the beginning: Indent! Indent! Indent, and .... eeeh,
Indent! :c)
(Oh No! Now the newsgroup is being used for indoctrination of minors! Get
the internet-police!!!)

Hi Mike!

Uncle Ken showed you how make a good raytraced picture! He was so good
that I think I will drop off my two boys unexpectedly at him too for a
day so that they can learn how to raytrace!!

Marc

P.S.: I love that plane!

Good work Mike

The fog is really nice and gives the picture some
depth.

Keep it up.

Cheers
Steve

PS:  Bryan, Uncle Ken knows how to do horses,
maybe you should drop your kids of round there one
day.

yada yada. 
We should lock us up in great underground city complexes, live on something we
can grow underground, and leave the nature to care for itself, try and restore
mush of it to original state. (Idea stolen from H.P. Lovecraft)
