Maurizio: you don't want to name your histograms the way you did - 
`Q2_1.605', for example, is being interpreted as a reference to a data 
member `605' of an object `Q2_1'. This is not allowed by the C++ syntax.  
Try changing the name of your histogram to `Q2_1_605' - this should help.

						-best, pasha
