[G12] pass1 cooking

My apologies, I analyzed 5 files instead of 2 (forgot to comment one 
line in the script, one wonders what else I might have forgotten) from 
pass1 to produce the figure, and it does contain twice more statistics, 
I'm attaching the new figure with 2 files only from pass1.

Anyway, it will be nice if one could check my findings from the files 
from pass1 located in:
/w/hallb/clasg12/gavalian/g12Pass1Skimmed

I did not understand what might be bad in seeing more omega events in 
pass0 compared to pass1. You think these events might be fake ?

Gagik.
