[Frost] scale factor cut

Hi,

Just in case anyone is thinking of using the example scale-factor code I 
released recently, I have a suggestion.

For creation of mass histograms, I have a cut on the scale factor 
fractional error. The cut is for any event that has a corresponding 
fractional error in the scale factor > 0.05. I think that this cut is too 
restrictive.

I suggest removing the cut.

To remove the cut:
In the code massLooper.C there is a function called fCut. Within the fCut 
function you might want to comment out the line:

if (eFrac < 0.05) fCutVal = 1;

In the next version of the CLAS note, I'll make a study as to the need of, 
and best value for, the fractional error cut.

Take care,
Michael
