Mark. This thread resulted from problems trying to do Surface Replication. You may find the following exercise of interest.

On a Terrain, apply  some grass(Hair) to parts of the Terrain. Then, Insert an object onto the Terrain. Apply the Surface Replication to that object onto that Terrain.

Hope someone can take the time to look at this "problem!"

(PLEASE don't reconfirm I am crazy!!!!!!!)
