    Howdy y'all. (Trying to sound like a Texan...)
    
    I've checked in a new and bigfixed version of BrRdoModuleZDC and BrRdoZDC
    in CVS. As before, this version has the slewing corrections done by Andrei
    Makeev (hardcoded for now), but it also has some important bugfixes and
    changes:
    
    1) The "old" GetAdcTdc is back, in case someone wants to use older code
    (the new commands are also there of course)
    2) The event bias introduced by the first module saturating is removed,
    i.e. statistics and event selection from the ZDC is now as before.
    3) IMPORTANT --- vertex offset!!!
    The old modules have all had an offset of 107 cm hardcoded in them. This
    is now REMOVED, as it was an ah-hoc fix done last summer and never
    intended to be permanent. Instead, there is a function
    void SetPosOffset(const Float_t value)
    that can set an offset. An offset is still needed (I'm not sure why...),
    and the value I'm using is 26.5 cm. I.e. use teh command
      zdcRdoModule->SetPosOffset(26.5);
    This should make the ZDC's agree with both BB and TPM1.
    
    Please mail me any comments.
