I didn't really dig into this but when the returned results were plotted
with IDLgrPolygon, the plotted area was not plotted correctly. Each
triangle is convex, but the way they are arranged (conn. array?) may not
be. Polygon expects a convex dataset so I hoped Tessellator will fix
that. It didn't; it might have been my error (in 2 lines of code), but I
chose not to track it down and just did things differently.
