hey, no problem.  I was just kidding.  I put the source there for anyone to play
with.  You dropped the main light_source, right?  But if I remeber correctly, I
used about 5 for recursion_limit.  Your front walls seem too dark, which lead
me to wonder if there is too low bouncing steps going on...

yes, well, it's really not visible in the original scene because I'd put a big
point light right before the doors/windows/whatever.  But the double shadows
from radiosity calculations is visible in the wall dividing the scene, which is
in shadow alone.

BTW, I think there's no way around it:  path tracing gets noise, radiosity gets
patches... :P
