Hi,

BTW: just a side-note: EZ was fast at what it could do, but it was  
pretty much impossible for me to make it do anything beyond what  
Eggleton's original code could do.  With mesa I've tried to make the  
code much more flexible and robust, but you'll find places where this  
means much slower evolution as it cautiously tip-toes along.  The  
climb up the rgb for low mass stars is a particularly striking case.   
You may want to let some of those run overnight!

Cheers,
Bill
