You always have to oppose scale for media when scaling the object it's in.  If
the scaling of the container object is first it isn't such a problem (?), if
scaled after the media is in place then it is.  If the object is scale
<100,50,10> for example (at the end of the entire object statement) then go back
into the media statement and use a scale <1/100,1/50,1/10> to correct for the
increase in media density, etc.  Opposite true too.
