28   $N_{BG}$ and its uncertainty.

30   To get a feeling for the sensitivity of this search to some
31   popular SUSY models, we remind the reader of the number of expected
32   LM0 and LM1 events from Table~\ref{tab:sigcont}: $6.3 \pm 1.3$

34   respectively, where the uncertainties
35   are from energy scale (Section~\ref{sec:systematics}), luminosity,
36   and lepton efficiency.  Note that these expected SUSY yields
