  Has anyone had any experience with the application of ray-tracing techniques to
simulate accoustics, i.e the formal equivalent of ray-tracing using sound instead
of light.  Can a ray-tracing algorithm be easily adapted to sound tracing. How
important are secondary rays, and how good is the simulation using only first and
second generation rays ?
