** If the uncertainties are not the same as David's studies: probably due to clustering algorithm(s): '''ASSUME''' that the % of the timing uncertainty improvement is independent of this difference.
 
* '''(Waiting on results)''' Fit the BCAL time resolution improvement % from the table of David's results as a function of theta (separately for photons, pions, and protons).  Energy-dependence comes from the coefficients.
