Thanks!

I had to resort to +A0.0 +R3 +AM2 AA settings.  Then you need to find ways
to cut the render time down.  I found that for this one, the gears were
really slowing it down, but I fixed it by using manula bouding on them.
CSG with difference can lead to bad bounding boxes at times.
BTW, you can't use both AA and focal blur.  Setting focal blur will turn off
traditional AA.
