I think I'm trying to remove nodes correctly (thanks again for the help on the last go-round), but I've encountered what appears to be a pytables bug in both 1.3.1 and 1.4 alpha from svn. Here's the traceback and a minimal program to reproduce the error.

$python removeNode_test.py
tables.__version__ 1.4alpha
Traceback (most recent call last):

   r.append()

h5file.removeNode( h5file.root.distance_table)
h5file.close()
