Just to clarify my earlier request.

I'm dealing with objects built of triangles (for now).  I'm not
very particular about keeping track of the object's place within
the octree -- I'm more interested in where the pieces of the object
are.

For the person who sent me mail (I lost it): I'm not illiterate just
because I don't know the plural of a math-word.
