Hello Tim,

Thank you for you comments and arguments.

Yes I will make presentation about this on Tuesday.
Just to comment quickly on the size of the v0 collection.
With this cuts the v0 size (and # of events) increase is about 10%. The 
dsts  V0 sizes are "26Mv vs 23 Mb".
On the full recon it is too small about 1%.
This was the main reason to loosen cuts, where I have filling cuts might 
be not so safe,
and therefore I think it will be worth to have 10% more events in the 
skim, but feel safer.

These current cuts and their results were shown many, many times with a lengthy validation process by Miriam, and approved with comments solicited after each presentation.

If I recall correctly, some tracks let in by looser cuts are obviously garbage when looked at in an event display (e.g. changing the sign of tan(lambda) along their trajectory!).  Can you show us that these tracks are useful?

The whole point of that collection was to have electrons that would not be used in analysis, but would be needed for other purposes kept separately from those we want to make V0 from.  Why do you want FEE mixed in with the electrons we will make V0 from?  This will simply blow up the V0 collections and data volume again.
