Hi Priya,
Consider the following:
You've put one person in the Himalaya, one in Delhi and one in Bombay,
you let them walk for a month each, and you wonder why they don't end
up in the same place, asking which place it is you should consider
correct then. Pretty absurd, but exactly what you're asking.
The thing is, there is no one correct structure; the only thing is the
ensemble. Running for a longer time should lead to convergence in the
sampling of each of your simulations, but by no means in equal end
structures.
Hope it helps and best wishes for 2007

This is a bit like baking bread either with egg or with no egg and
varying the amount of flour each time. The flour will cause minor
variation and the egg content will make for a result that does not
resemble the alternative...

Unfortunately that's your job, and it depends what you intended the
exercise to produce.
