Whoops! Sorry, I was taken much too seriously here. I've been
wrapping myself too tightly in one of those on-line "communities"
where people know that I'm full of shit, and know that I know too.
I'm fairly incorrect, politically speaking, myself. Last thing
I would want to do would be to join the thought police.
Anyhow, this whole thread has strayed far enough from the topic
of VRML. Sorry.
