COMMENT

na.mod

Sodium channel, Hodgkin-Huxley style kinetics.  


qi is not well constrained by the data, since there are no points
between -80 and -55.  So this was fixed at 5 while the thi1,thi2,Rg,Rd
were optimized using a simplex least square proc

voltage dependencies are shifted approximately +5mV from the best
fit to give higher threshold

use with kd.mod
