  I have been worried about the coincedent surface problem. If you bound
an object using an object that is too small it will end up clipping
the object you are trying to bound. I simply over scale a bit to avoid
this possibilty. All examples I have seen for bounding have always been
scaled larger than the object to be bound and I practice by example.
