Above should be OK for dipolar relaxation, but it's probably good to check
against some simpler calculations (e.g. of just angular order parameters) as
a sanity check.

The physical problem is that CSA (and correlated CSA/DD) relaxation is much
more important for F than for H. I'm not sure what computational people
have been doing about this, but be sure to consider what the fluorine CSA
might be doing before trying to compare to experimental results.
