Just trying an idea ready for an abstract... one sphere and hundreds
of tiny glows.
Enjoy. (And comments?)

As always I like the image. But you're cheating, it's only Thursday.

See attached image. Does all newsgroup-messages display in local time at
arrival? I've always wondered, and that must be the only explanation.

OK,
Steve's message is dated in its headers as
Date: 13 Jun 2001 21:01:54 -0400
note the -0400 which indicates Steve's time zone. Now since I'm
currently +0100 (British Summer Time) my news reader added five hours
and told me that he posted at 14 Jun 2001 2:01 local time for me. Your
timezone is +0200 so your news reader converted the post date to 14
Jun 2001 3:01.
This is great, because it means I can work on a Friday Abstract all
the way to about 11am Saturday local time before anyone really
complains that I'm posting late because it's still Friday somewhere :)

Depends on your newsreader. Some convert the time in the date header of
the message (which is always local time of the sender[1] plus time zone) to
local time, some don't (and for some its a configurable option).
hp
[1] Actually, it is often the server which generates the Date header,
not the client, so "sender" has to be taken with a grain of salt.

But the date in the sig said 1:46am, the Date: line that you see
in the headder is put there by the server as is the date in the
X-Trace: line. You'll also see that Warp's date comes up as
-0400 when he's posting from the Unix box, (I think some times he
uses a windows machine that posts the local date).
Hope that clears things up a bit.

I'm not sure what would have been achieved with a large difference
statement (long render times and it wasn't the effect I wanted.)
It's just a sphere with a variation of a spark macro placing glows
across the surface which happens to generate a nice image.
