    Can I have your probability array? This is important, because that
    shift as is is the biggest shift of any w shift; what's more, what I'm
    generally quoting is not supernova results alone, but supernova results
    in tandem with the other limits on w, so I need to do that here. (Since
    our data don't have a well defined "best" value of w, given the huge and
    curved confidence regions, it's difficult to quote systematics on w
    without using something else.
