You may want to use the -driftcorr flag in order to correct
for spurious drift in the graphs. Note that this is not
a substitute for proper equilibration and sampling!

WARNING: nmol = 1, this may not be what you want.

Temperature dependent fluctuation properties at T = 317.954.

Heat capacities obtained from fluctuations do *not* include
quantum corrections. If you want to get a more accurate estimate
please use the g_dos program.

WARNING: Please verify that your simulations are converged and perform
a block-averaging error analysis (not implemented in g_energy yet)

We can't possibly know if you won't tell us how you generated this
message, no matter how easy you think it is to generate :-)
