[Novalug] blender?

[Roger W. Broseus]

First-off, this is NOT directed at Jason but is a general rant about 
software web pages. And, I look forward to your talk. Now, the rant:

Is "Blender" a cross-platform vegetable chopper? Sort of an open source 
or FOSS version of a Cuisinart?

Being curious about Blender, I Googled and perused

    http://www.blender.org/education-help/faq/linux/

and other blender pages and found no quick and concise statement of 
purpose (or "about" page) for this software - not an atypical situation. 
One is left to determine purpose by surmise - paging through different 
pages to see what the software is used for.
