By the way, at this years Eurographics there was a paper about *continuous*
collision detection. It's also available online:
S. Redon, A. Kheddar and S. Coquillart
"Fast Continuous Collision Detection between Rigid Bodies"
In proceedings of Eurographics. September 2002

I just thought I'd better mention it, maybe whoever is working on collision
detection between triangle meshes might be interested in it.
