Actually, I was thinking about making any 3-dimensional driver. I had
originally thought I should use the old matrix multiplication method,
because that seems to be the most optimal way, but if I find enough other
methods that will only raise my grade on the project.  In other words,
sure, I'd love to help as much as I can.
