That seemed to be sufficient to rectify the issue. Can't say that sample 65
looks significantly better...

Even at this "late" stage, I do not have an adequate grasp of antialiasing
settings, so maybe that will be a future area of concentration for me to
investigate, or someone else to post some explanation with illustrative code.

Well Gooooooollllllly!
Look at all that there stuff under the hood of POV-Ray that you just emptied out
of your head... :O

Good catch, and that is probably something that needs to be ironed out, or at
least in the short term provided with a little formulaic workaround to tweak the
values accordingly. Something like the gradient formula for isosurfaces or some
of the lighting formulas in the docs, if that's at all possible.

aye, I should probably take more notes. Though I already get razzed about the
number of piles of paper with cryptic scribblings... ;)
Thanks for the info as always :)
