    Dear Mark,
      Tony forwarded me your suggestions. Thanks for reading the paper.
    Your comments are appreciated.

      I will blow up the scaling in the figures that you mention and
    a few others as well.

      The finding charts (FC) do take up a lot of space, so I am planning to
    make them available only in the electronic journal. It seems to
    be is standard practice to show a FC when presenting observations of
    supernovae, so this is one of the reasons I have included them. Also,
    the SNe and there hosts are faint, so the finding charts will
    be useful to anybody would like to do followup.

    Regards,

    Chris Lidman.
