I put these in.

The first refers to the use of SETJY to set flux values and then to 
scale a model to the desired total flux.  GETJY is problematical unless 
this is doen or your model is better than most.

I have added a warning about large numbers of failed solutions because, 
if your data are good, there should not be a large number of failed 
solutions.

But what were your questions?
