This error was likely caused by incorrect -c parameter. The error
message was misleading. I committed a better message earlier this week.
Synthetic control works reliably with k-Means when the arguments are
given correctly. I think this can be closed.

I tried the Kmeans algorithm on the Synthetic Control data. The following error
appears. I tried the Canopy algorithm, it is fine. This error is from Mapper. I
am using Trunk.
