Summary: 

[ is something supposed to go here? :-> ]

Could someone please point me towards a nifty algorithm for determining
if a line intersects an arbitrary polygon?

("can you say r-a-y t-r-a-c-i-n-g?"). There must be at least 4-5 ways to
do this. I'm too lazy to go do through old Siggraph proceedings, though
I will if I have to.

(they're all saying "now that you've those smooth shaded spheres,
 when are we going to see something REALLY interesting?")

Thanks in advance.
