Does anyone know what values of RGB to use to make a nice looking silver?
(as in a metallic object?)  I've tried a variety of combinations and none 
of them seem very pleasing.

While on the subject, does anyone know a good book on how to color ray-
tracing views?  For example, how much does a light ray change when it
reflects off a metallic sphere?  

Thanks in advance for any help.
