I've been skimming bad1214 (I haven't read it carefully yet) and have a
coupole quesitons:

0) Why do we have a smaller SF parameter error than Belle, yet use SF
input (mb) that has a larger error than what they use?

1) Did you look at cuts other than 1.55 GeV for Mx?  If not, why not?

2) If you are going to quote a systematic due to "binning", please read
http://babar-hn.slac.stanford.edu:5090/HyperNews/get/Statistics/217.html
and follow-ups and explain why you think you're actually measuring
anything of value by doing this.

3) Why do you not quote a partial BF for the MX analysis?

4) Figure 17 is fairly convincing...that there's a problem with the
background estimation.

I'm eager to get these results into Francesco's talk; otherwise Belle will
have a better Vub.... however, for publication I insist that Mx be treated
with as much care as q2-Mx.  It would also be nice to have P+....
