Also, please note that those ion parameters are non-polarizable and tuned
for specific water models (i.e. hence the water model in the name, i.e.
ionsjc_tip3p, ionsjc_spce, ...); they will likely not be transferrable to
a polarizable water model (without some re-fitting) and may not be
balanced with a polarizable RNA model...

  [Note that the paper describing the new monovalent ion
   parameters should be in JPCB ASAP very soon now.]
