No, there isn't.  The glu functions render the objects directly every
time you call them - they don't build up a permenant data structure in

Nope - didn't write one of those.

I suggest you look at ssgAux - there is code there (class ssgaCylinder)
to build a cylinder - it should be pretty simple to see how to change
it to make a cone.
