Ah! Hmm... yeah, I've gotta try that one. I usually use the spare
energy for the toaster thought.

Well, that is not much of a trouble when you hit the 50 Hz with the
resonance, since the passband damping is below that and well, we don't
really care about that energy in this case.

If you are going to run your 16 2/3 Hz train you naturally have to
take some care to ensure that your filter gets all the way down there.
