Subject: FORCE CONSTANTS: THANKS AND A NOTE

Thanks to all who responded  to my request for the C-C force constant.
   CAUTION: at least one book lists "force constants" which are really not
force constants, but rather the proportionality constants in
  			E = k(l-l_eq)^2
Because of the way k_force is defined, integrating rdr introduces a factor
of 1/2, and k_f = 2k.
