Dear Stan, Yury,

the logarithmic scale is hiding certain features.
Can you produce a plot of the ratios (data/MC) for e+ and e- ? This should 
take out the leading Q2 dependence and help identify the problem zones.

The enhanced e- yield at backward angle was already present in Jan's plot 
from October.

Best regards
   Michael
