This has got to be a bug in SparseFieldProtrayal3D's updateModel  
method.  I can see all sorts of evil places where there's likely a  
bug there -- the number one possibility is that globalTG.removeChild 
(t) may be operating in the middle of the for-loop over  
globalTG.numChildren(), which is probably not wise.  :-)

Unfortunately, I do not have enough time to look at this code and  
debug it for a week or more (grant proposal deadline).  Gabriel might  
have time possibly.
