Well, I finally caught back up.  Just took 2 1/2 days off and came back to
have to wade through buckets of CRAP in the IML.  Amazing.  I thought after
3.0 came out we'd have plenty to talk about.  Oh well.

I played with bones, trying to achieve a flag or table cloth or curtain
effect.  No go.  When you put bones side by side they do wierd things.  
Their effects are additive.  If you overlap a number of faces, those over
lapping faces will add the effects of the bones.  If they don't overlap,
then the boarder between the two won't move when you move the bones.  I
need to play a little more, but I think bones may be limited to doing 
them in a line, like the fingers in a hand.  I wanted to do a jellyfish
using bones, but....
