Mike's already found the real problem, of course, but I just want to
add my two cents:

This is, in general, a very bad idea.  Since the shock is certainly going
to be dynamically important, it should be refined at the highest level
of the simulation; derefining it probably not the right thing to do,
and intentionally de-refining it by letting it hit a refinement boundary
is _certainly_ not a good idea.
