Source code for many of the demos (including insect) is available from
User Services here at Silicon Graphics.  It is copyrighted software,
not public domain.  Silicon Graphics charges $100.00 for the tape (to
cover duplication costs, mailing, etc.).

Contact Monica Schulze for more information; her E-mail address is
monica@corp.sgi.com, or write to:

	Silicon Graphics, Inc.
	User Services
	Mailstop 9L-415
	2011 N. Shoreline Blvd.
	Mountain View, CA 94087-7311

The source code is not supported by Silicon Graphics; it is provided
as a courtesy to our customers (in other words, don't call the HotLine
and ask for an explanation of how the hidden surface removal was done
for the insect).
