	Umm, can I get the teapot database from somebody? I promise it
wont show up at Siggraph '88! I just want to have a somewhat standard
image to work with as I teach myself about ray tracing/jello tracing et al.
Oh, if this is a sizeable database, it's best if some people tell me that I
can get it from them, and then I'll just answer the first reponse, asking them
to send it.

	I do not intend to map Mandrills to the teapot, although a silver,
highly reflective teapotahedron surrounded by kiwi fruit sounds like an
interesting project. Congrats to Paul Heckbert for a technically groundbreaking
talk at Siggraph. I look forward to "Luxo Red's Cool Whip Caper" next year :-)
