Send me the code and I will look at it...though I'm not too hopeful, 
since I have never done anything with this sort of tesselation...

Noooo! Don't even talk like that... ;-)

Does it show up if you don't translate the tesselated sphere back in 
position? Are all your calculations relative to the bounding box and not 
to the origin?

  Let me look at the code just once again. If I can't figure out anything,
I'll send it to you.

  Yes.

: to the origin?

  The calculations always take the geometry of the bounding box. It
shouldn't matter what is the location of the bounding box.
