Thanks Sita. I have struggled with how to capture very ghostly gray matter.  
Sometimes throwing a CP in it works (I understand now this may be hosing it 
sometimes) - if AR2-cp w/CPs in white matter is not driving the pial surfaces 
to capture all the gray - is the only way to capture the ghostly gray matter to 
directly edit the pial surface?

I was trying to avoid that. I was told don't ever edit the pial surfaces - not 
sure why though.  Will manual edits of the pial surfaces cause other problems 
in getting surface segmentation stats?

Thank you -
Sherri
