[G12] Momentum corrections

[Matt]

Hi all,

   Paul, this may get bounced from the g12 mailing list, as I am emailing
from a different address than from which I originally subscribed. Could you
please forward it to that list as a record of this conversation.

   That is absolutely not true, Moskov, and you are trying to either
misrepresent my work or you are willfully ignoring *multiple* discussions we
had on this matter and which is documented in emails and on the Wiki. There
were *never* any issues with any mass plots or cuts that were made in my
analysis. There was *one* independent set of plots that were made in order
to compare other momentum distributions to ODU's work and the issue was with
a definition of transverse momentum in Mike William's 4vec class. This has
been gone over *MANY* times with you and Larry and Igor and others and it
was *NEVER* used to make any cuts on the analysis.

   There were *NEVER* any *physics* issues raised with my analysis, Moskov,
though this is not the first time that you have tried to misrepresent that
work. I am disappointed that after we had a similar email conversation last
year on this *very same issue*, that you try to pull this. I have always
been as transparent as possible in every step of that analysis and those
discussions.

   I have no idea what the ODU group is doing now, so I cannot comment on
it. But do not think that a plotting issue that was solved *days after* we
showed it at a meeting, in any way discredits the work that I did, nor that
it strengthens any of the previous ODU analysis.
