I have taken numbers from both Michael’s and Aristeidis’ studies and combined them in
an Excel spread sheet that can be obtained from:

In this spreadsheet, I accounted for the omega-> pi+ pi- pi 0 (89%)  and the eta->gam gam (39.1%)
in obtaining the efficiencies. I also used Aristeidis’ (100,4) numbers, that may have been the wrong
choice???

I then computed a “Track Efficiency” from the number of candidates to the BDT versus the number of 
correct events thrown. In this I just counted the number of tracks and photons, so for the eta pi pi case,
this is 5, while for the omega pi pi case, it is 7. The number is clearly a bit lower for the omega case,
but not by a huge factor.
