Hi Lance,

It appears that the Java SDK is required on your system for CAVE to run.  You 
can download the SDK from 
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7-downloads-1880260.html

Looks for the 5th item in the list, "Mac OS X x64       196.89 MB       
jdk-7u79-macosx-x64.dmg"

Oracle's user agreement requirement prevents me from linking directly to the 
DMG.
