- Err... I just read your answer. _I'm not sure_ of what I gonna say, but
- I think I saw _real_ shadows in BM. Not only darker squares. I gonna verify
- this, but I remind being at the foot of a high column, with a light coming from
- the roof, and there was a shadow on the floor under my feet... Am I wrong, or
- what ? :-)
