    Alright, so by now my inability to navigate the collaboration webpages
    is well documented. Thanks to Rob, however, I did manage to find the
    lightcurve stuff for the high-z SNe that went into Knop03. I was also
    able to re-run all the lighcturve fits and compute the reddening, etc,
    with a somewhat different (better?) spectral template and color-stretch
    relation.

    I must confess, though,that I failed to find the low-z lightcurve data.
    Can anyone sympathise with this fool and tell me where I should look?
    Oh yeah, and don't forget to send money for research on alzeimer...

    Cheers,
            Ariel
