59. The GAUSSIAN 94 keyword Int=(grid=SG1grid) was used for calculations performed with GAUSSIAN 94 for the B3-PW91 DFT method.
60. Obtained with the GAUSSIAN 92/DFT keyword: int=finegrid. We note also that GAUSSIAN 94 makes this grid the default grid for DFT calculations.
61. Dynamic cutoff schemes are used to prescreen many grid points which would not yield a significant contribution. See ref 24 for more complete details.
62. Obtained with the GAUSSIAN 92/DFT keyword iop(5/44=50194).

64. The molecular and overall rms errors reported in ref 6 for ZPVEs are in error by factors of about 4 and 2, respectively.
