this is actually a LONG stride from the previous animation... the center
ball actually belongs in the same array as the rest, treated exactly the
same.  I was going to get rid of it but the other balls kept floating off
collectively and I couldn't keep the camera on 'em.  So I just added one
with a big radius at the origin, viola: gravity anchor.  There seems to be
some realistic bouncing and collisions, I think I'm getting closer...
