Takashi and Bradley,

Thanks for checking this. We should "turn every stone" in the simulation 
chain to understand
what is going on with our data-MC agreement.
Can you please (with all relevant people) write a note (HPS-Note) on 
details of simulation
scheme and tests that are done showing that everything works correct.

Thanks, Stepan
