    I have been looking at our favorite "min-bias" run, 2336.  I will recheck
    the suggested offset later today.  However, when I asked Hiro about this
    last week, he seemed to confirm seeing the same thing.  Hiro,  could please
    recheck your analysis and post whether and how much of an offset you see.
