Oh, I wouldn't say NOTHING. We have near perfect dot-rendering of the surface. It's just getting those interpolations and triangles right that escapes us. I was thinking that the dots could provide the entre into an isosurface if the voxels could be defined in relation to the dots. (Sort of marching cubes backward, then forward.)

At least for small molecules this would work. But, yeah, a 1000x1000x1000 grid on an enzyme....

Oh, wait. Silly us! it's not a 1000x1000x1000 grid. Isn't it a multiply linked list of voxels in the vacinity of the surface? Maybe we are thinking too linearly and instead should think of this more as an "exact cover" dancing links problem.

Hmm, if that worked, we could probably even publish it. Be famous, you know?
