We have assumed an average value near theoretical estimates for the "true correlation length" [53] and the "second moment of the bulk correlation length" [54,55]; however, we note that recently Floter and Dietrich [55] determined rather a different value for the "true correlation length," Rξ=1.73 ±0.04, from an interpolation of exact results in two and four dimensions to three dimensions.
