  // An example function for how you could trigger using information from the whole art event.
  //    Using this trigger means that you have the whole set of information which you would have
  //     in the art module which you called it from. However, this is useful to separate the 
  //     triggering algorithm from the rest of your code.

  // An example function for how you could trigger using information from the TPC Raw Digits.
  //    Using this trigger means that you ony have access to the Raw Digits.

  // An example function for how you could trigger using information from the Photon detector OpDetWaveforms
  //    Using this trigger means that you ony have access to the OpDetWaveforms
  //      You can find the info on these here: http://nusoft.fnal.gov/larsoft/doxsvn/html/classraw_1_1OpDetWaveform.html

  // An example function for how to trigger using the output of other triggers.
