There are some serious problems with the analysis off the runs given here. 

There were clearly just runs and inserted into the DB without any checking. Most of these runs have very few events
run 18 secs,.. 89 events and so on so no wonder the data are bad. I found this since there were essentially no
rich rings, and this was traced back to these pad pedestal. I have not check any other pedestals,
but most likey other detectors suffers too.
These make me worry that such other cases are likely to be found.

Morale:
Always have quality of calibratons checked before committing to DB. Otherwise some else is going to vaste
their time later, and even produce wrong results.
