ransac streams

As if Lang and I weren't distracted enough, we revived an old idea of finding Milky Way substructure (think streams) by a ransac-related approach. Use pairs of stars to generate hypotheses, test those hypotheses with the other stars. We revived this only after coming up with plans for finishing our unfinished papers, but still it was typical distraction from the critical path!
