    This is correct.  You can RENDER in any order you want and the
    field dominance will be correct.

    Now, if you are feeling clever and think you are going to save
    some render time on a simple oscillating or pulsating effect by
    rendering one half to the PAR, duplcating the frames backwards,
    and gluing the two pieces together, you will be sad to know this
    does not work.

    I tried it with some glowing arrows, no movement at all, and there
    is still a little jump where it reverses.

    Just thought everyone would like to know.
