With the first couple getAllRuns_xxx.pl files completed, and the findBXoff.C run over them, it was time to begin analysis to ensure that everything was working just fine.

Linearity Check in fixed ecalgeo.g

Abstract:  A bug in the EEMC geometry has been identified.  Lines such as "Material Air isvol=0" have an unexpected (read undocumented) behavior: they create a new materi
