This error usually is caused because you refer to something that has
already been deallocated. Is can often happen if you forget to retain
an object that was autoreleased when it was created, and you try to
access it too late, i.e. after the pool has cleaned stuff up. It can
also happen if you release something more than you should, i.e. you
release an object that you did not own.  This is a good read to start
