java-programmer, Switching Locale intermittent geometry position bug Hi,

I'm working on a 3D visualization of the Mars Exploration Rover
Mission.
Please refer to my webpage:

http://home.comcast.net/~meralizer/

Everything appears to be working well, except I'm still haunted with
what appears to be a Locale/HiResCoord bug.

What makes it more difficult to debug is that it's intermittent!

Sometimes when I switch to a Locale, geometry in the scene/heirarchy
jumps to the wrong position and orientation. However, when I switch to
another Locale and back again, this "fixes" the problem.
So it appears that some information in the transformation heirarchy is
temporarily corrupted. Then when I toggle the Locales, it's is
restored/updated/recalculated to the correct values.

I'm trying to finish this project, but this one remaining bug is
driving me nuts.I'm getting the same bug on two different platforms,
so it's not a platform/grapics card-specific bug.

Any ideas?
thanks
