This fixed my problem in 2d, but I'm still having issues in 3d.  Any other 
suggestions for getting a .msh file read in when it's a 2d mesh in 3d 
space?  Posting the mesh I want to use here, with the type 15 elements 
removed.  I've also tried other software and file formats, running into the 
same issue previously posted about .unv files produced with Salome, so I 
appreciate any suggestions on reading in a mesh!  

Best, Victoria
