[BLAST_ANAWARE] BATs MC and MC-reconstruction questions

Hello (mainly for Chi, Wang, Ben)!
I have checked out the latest blastmc, dgen and recon versions, and
generated some events in the kinematic region of interest for the BATs.

I was able to see BATs hits on the GEANT interactive display and the BATs
also seem to light up when I replay event.coda with nsed, but when I
tried to look at the ep_skim-0.root file I created using lrn on
event.coda, there were no BATs hits (also no hits in the Cerenkovs in
front of the BATs).

Since I see BATs events in real data in my ep_skim structure, I am
wondering if this is an error in the way lrn handles MC BAT events, or
maybe the BATs have never been fully implemented in our blastmc (I have
not checked this in more detail than just looking at the tools mentioned
above)? Does anyone (Wang, Ben) know if the BATs were fully implemented in
our MC, before I start hacking the code?

Also, Chi - are the MC BATs events handled by lrn (and written to
ep_skim), or only the real BATs data at this point?

I just thought I would ask and save some time...
Thanks,
Adrian
