Hi Dave,

         I have a student who has worked carefully on this. I will
send you a NAMD input file, an AMBER input file, and some RNA
coordinates. We can get close to the same energy using PME with a
single point energy calculation. My recollection is that there are
some subtle differences only in electrostatics and VDW because NAMD
uses a smooth switching function for cutoffs.

         I will try to send you these today.

Sincerely,
Dave
