[phenixbb] Waters in FEM

[Pavel Afonine]

Hi John,

thanks for feedback, this is very valuable as I'm still gaining 
experience with FEM and tuning the protocol based on it.

I can't tell what exactly happens unless I have data and model files and 
can reproduce the map you get. Would mind sharing the files off list so 
I can have a closer look?

Thanks!
Pavel
