Thanks, Russell. That is why I keep posting to this thread. I'm looking for
advice on this whole cluster thing. I included Beal (MAQ47) and Black
(4Q9Z8) only tentatively, since they are off on a couple of the cluster's
distinctive markers. However, since they matched on most of them and were
relatively close to the modal, I included them. I did notice that 21 at
YCA-IIa as rather odd. They were the only two that had those values.

Once again, thanks for the heads up.
