Running the model (execution of the mosinit.hoc file) will display
the data and simulation results as in  Fig 3 and 5.

The cell2 subdirectory contains cell data and simulation which shows
only a limited decrease in the action potential interval.
Running the model (cd cell2 and execute the mosinit.hoc file)
will display the data and simulation within a Multiple Run Fitter.
