/* Dave, Here's the technique I was describing and for a magnifying glass
effect it works very well. The trick is to place a copy of the paper both above
and below the magnifying lens. The lens is assigned a 100% reflective material

Oh wow. David this is a great tip. I get it. Totally! The lens reflects the
inverted "above" paper image, and the image (having its normals flipped) is
invisible to camera. Bravo. Excellent. Thank you. I'll give this method a whirl
today. I've had fair success with the projector light method and just figured
out some VPost capabilities to achieve this too, but you method sounds like the
laziest (and most effective) yet. Thank you! -dave
