Hello, everyone. This was posted with NNTP, but seems to have dissappeared somehow, so I'm re-posting with the http interface. My appolgies if it turns up twice.

Hey! My program's been shown on TV now. I feel so fulfilled ;-). Well, maybe not quite, but it was still nice to see. Nice job on the segment, Tim. I don't think I would have thought to use wireframe cutaway to show both wireframe and solid. (...) (20 years ago, 8-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad)
