    Notes:

    Landscape ecology problem, using electrical network theory to model 
    animal movement an gene flow.  The McRae/ecology1 matrix comes from 
    a 2D, 1000-by-1000 mesh (5 pt stencil).  It is an ill-conditioned   
    symmetric indefinite matrix.  Source: Brad McRae, National Center
