We are looking into this. The skims are based on PID, and apparently  
SEB is finding kaons that PID is not- that is all we know right now.
It may also be that PID is finding kaons that SEB is not- I am not  
sure that Valery has checked for that.
In any event, no events are lost, but if you wish to exploit the SEB  
kaons, you may have to sum over the first five skims, which is not  
really a big deal, but perhaps not
as convenient as using a more exclusive skim. Certainly for quick  
checks for enhanced kaons, the skims are fine, but may nor may not be  
used for final event selection.
