Hi Swagata,

That's not a problem. You should be fine running a simulation, given the
potential energy of the system. Check the archives for more elaborate
comments on this matter. And please check the archives/google before
posting questions. We like breaking our heads over new, tough issues, and
don't really fancy chewing on old matters, which come up on a monthly basis.

Cheers,

Tsjerk
