I can't see any problem in your code, so it looks like
a bug in VisAD. I have no access to VisAD debugging this
week and perhaps not the rest of the month.
Curtis, would you please run Doug's code and let me know if
it fails as described.

Sorry for the inconvenience. Currently pointMode is global
to all data objects in a display.
Cheers,
Bill
