well I sort of wanted to avoid doing two spheres.. later on I wanted to do
more complicated surfaces.. and it can get a bit messy.. It is not straight
forward to generate the two parallel surfaces in general.. to be honest
the problematic case would be when i want to display selfintersecting but
still orientable surfaces (NOT Klein bottles or Moebius strips)
cheers anyway for the quick response
