This seems to fail on "STORAGE_SHED". Putting in some print statements, it's stuck in an infinite loop simplifying one of the segments. Perhaps it's bad geometry?

I've never encountered this except in the supplied tea.shp file (and I've used the tool quite a bit), so I think the geometry is corrupt. I'm going to downgrade this to minor unless we get other reports.
