I'll try a spline fitting. I've already made some linear interpolations
(see Robert Kern answer) which works well enough to use it. I'm working
on a genetic algorithms application to the model parameters
optimalization problem and this RMSe comparison serves me as 'fitness
function'. This 'fitness function' is important element in whole
procedure, so I'm trying to found the best solution to obtain it.

Well, I can do it, indeed. But every single fitting procedure implicate
some additional error, so when it comes to fit, I must use it very
cautiously. The simulated data-points fitting should be the only
acceptable fitting procedure, I guess.

I'll look to this NR discussion.
Thank You for these comments!
