You are welcome. Thought you might like that one. I have been sitting on it
for a year or two, so no help there. :)

I came up with it to close some contour data, but it will only work  for
special cases. But I would challenge a human to come up with a connected
polygon from random points that fast. :) Working from the point average
results in not too much better a fit either. All depends on the particular
point set.

If you remember Contour Me Cool, I need a beast that will link all those
intersect points into a coherent whole (still).
