Ok, now I understand what you did - and did not. What we could do
very quicky is estimate the change in K-corrections for Cousins' R & I
for the listed redshifts with your ubersspectrum. We can then (hopefully)
show that "bias" is sufficient to account for the effect in the
Leibundgut paper.
Cheers,
Ariel
