    Hi all,
    
    Marco and I've just had quite a struggle with brag. He had a bug that
    looked odd at first glance. He sent hijing events through brag and applied
    some rotations in phi. The result was : as the rotation angle grew above a
    certain limit, output files were smaller and smaller in size. The last
    rotations had no useful data in it.
    
    So, I suspected it had to do with the rotang treatment. I dug into 
    brag/src/user/guxint.F in the part dealing with oscar input.
    I realized by making several tests that when the phi angle of a particle, 
    after a rotation was applied, ended up > 180 deg., brag would ignore it. 
    This was especially true with Marco's phi range (-30 to 30 deg. only).
    
    The fix was to remove 360 deg. to particles with phi angles > 180 (so that
    they end up to the negative half of the full phi range).
    
    But I haven't committed anything. I ask the experts to make sure this is 
    the right thing to do and if such fix should be applied to other nkine 
    sections.
