A nontrivial space-time structure of the hot system created at RHIC is the defining aspect of the physics of relativistic heavy ion collisions. Femtoscopy through pion intensity interferometry provides direct access to the dynamic geometric substructure of the freeze-out stage, and appears to confirm source evolution via collective flow. Since flow is usually considered to be a bulk phenomenon, it is surpring to find a simple scaling in preliminary HBT radii from p+p, d+Au and Au+Au collisions. Investigating the light system data in detail, we discuss a new way to visualize the ``fine structure'' of 3D correlation functions and the potential importance of long range correlations.
