Question : Creating shapeFile in arcEngine and adding to Globe control application

Hey guys; Sad to say I entered all of this before then pushed the wrong button and lost everything.  So i am entering it again, hoping I remembered everything.  

I am creating a shapefile in ArcObjects using code esri provided in one of their examples.  I used their code to create the workspace, create the IFields object, to create the the spatial reference of the shape field, create the feature class then add the polygon to the feature class and add the shape file as a layer to the globe control.  everything wokrs great except for the following, one the shape is displayed half a world away from where it is supposed to be.  and two, whe I use the UnitConverter.ConvertUnits method to convert meters to mapunit's I get a shape .0001 the size that it is supposed to be but if I just pass in meters then the shape is the correct size.  The shape is supposed to be located at 37.9166 N 86.0 W (or 37.9166, -86).  It actually ends up at 0 N .0001 W (0, -.0001)  so if anyone can give me a hand with this in a time sensitive manner I would be appreciative.  I am allocating what I believe is all my remaining points to this questions.  I need to know this fairly quickly as I will be out of the office for surgical recovery starting Wednesday.  "Help me Obi wan Kenobi. You're my only hope".

Answer : Creating shapeFile in arcEngine and adding to Globe control application

OK resolved issue. First off putcoords is x,y not necessarily lon, lat. It is dependent upon the spatial reference of your point.
If you are using a spatial reference that utilizes meters instead of decimal degrees like esriSRProjCSType.esriSRProjCS_Sphere_AzimuthalEquidistant then x, y is in meters from the point of origin which is Lat 0 Long 0.
So when I set my point's spatial reference to that determined by that projected coordinate system, then I was specifying 86 meters west of the prime meridian and 37.9166 meters north of the equator. Everything else worked properly from that.
What I needed to do was to set spatial reference of the point to that returned by CreateGeographicCoordinateSystem of the
Spatialreference factory for the GCS constant esriSRGeoCSType.esriSRGeoCS_WGS1984 like in the function below. Then use the project method of that point to set the spatial reference to the projected coord syst used by the shapefile like so:

ISpatialReference projCoordSys = new ESRI.ArcGIS.Geometry.ProjectedCoordinateSystemClass();
projCoordSys = MakeSpatialReference(esriSRProjCSType.esriSRProjCS_Sphere_AzimuthalEquidistant);
tempPoint.Project(projCoordSys);
centerPoint = tempPoint;
and voila; Polygon is in northern Kentucky as it should be. Thanks due to my boss Mr. Bill Dollins.
