Never assume that, Sam! Without exageration, all the utilities coming out of 
your hands are highly appreciated and waited for impatiently by many from 
this community. I cannot imagine a day when somebody would grumble: "Oh 
dear! Another useless piece of code from Sam? When is he going to shut 
down??" :-)
You certainly are one of the top creative drivers of POV-Ray.

Thank you for the kind words, Thomas. The new version has been posted at

Looks like a boulder that's been bird-bombed a great deal.

Or a Rothko painting.

I tend to your first sentence! :-D

Wrapped by my ignorance, I did not know Rothko, but he seems an interesting
artist.

Thanks for your comment, John.

Thank you for the correction.  I tend to place all purveyors of crap 
into the same category.

John

Never-the-less, the similarity between the Rotten Granite and 'Lavender 
Mist' is quite remarkable.
