I wasn't being snide or sarcastic. I thought you had decided to email
this list b/c you wanted to help. I don't like accepting claims about
data w/o seeing the data or at least w/o knowing the background of the
people making the claim. I work in a physics department, they get picky
about that sort of thing. :)

So, no, I don't know who you are but I admit to not knowing everyone.

So do you wanna tell me anymore about yourself and how you got your
data?
