Is this the node Chris talked about? It sounded like a good idea.
Does this mean that we remove the Cone I would argue not, we should leave Cone in the often, and if a renderer knows that it is being given a Cone Cylinder it might be able to render the object faster than if it
treated all Cones, and Cylinders as generalized cylinders.

Chris, if this is the - would SGI be willing to give thents this to the net?
- if not, was the in some other form?
