> a) does it run if you turn of shake (ntf and ntc)?
It runs a little while longer, but still isn't very successful. The
first 83 steps or so seem OK, then the total energy drops drastically in
the next step. The following step it is listed as **********. Another
thing I noticed was temperature begin to increase rather quickly after
about 78 steps, with as much of a 104 K increase between steps 81 and
82, and ~200 K increase from 82 to 83.

> b) look at the trajectory for the first few steps, which parts move fast?
Without shake, there are only very small movements, as expected. With
shake, it looks like throughout the box everything moves with the same
speed. Rotations seem a bit faster than translations. After only about
30 steps or so, it seems as if the rotations mostly stop, and the whole
box begins to translate more or less as a single unit, with the
exception of a few spots, where it seems like I have mini-blackholes.
The nearby waters basically get sucked into a single point

This makes no difference. Same errors.
