  23.    I have a question for you, is this intersecting between two 
  24. entirely seperate objects which are moving about independtly? If thats
  25. the case, then I couldn't answer your question. However if the 
  26. intersecting is between two seperate parts of the same object, or if 
  27. they are two object which always remain relative to one another, then 
  28. you could attempt to merge them with the 'union' bolean function which
  29. should make the itersecting edge, a REAL edge and would therefore 
  30. antialias properly!
