[vtkusers] Surface - Volume intersection

[Donald S Dunbar]

Okay, no bites on this one.  Can I at least get some indication from 
someone about whether this is within the realm of possible VTK tricks?  
Are there any classes for extracting the intersection between volumes 
and surfaces?

Many thanks,
D. Dunbar
