ahh... Sounds kinda interesting.
I saw some people doing this 3 years ago with a very complicated
energy function, (some kind of ab initio) Of course it did not work.

Anyone remember who that can have been ? I have a vague memore that
they were european (german ?)

So what else (besides the build up procedure) is new in Rose's stuff. 
compared to their 1994 work ? Same pot-fkn ? I guess they tried it on 
something bigger than a helix ?
