Fix code to give better error messageing and use art functionality to not have to state all input parameters in fcl #78

The code now "works" for the first event, but for some reason doesnt store anything after that ... investigating

When you say "store anything" do you mean that you have a RootOutput module in your path but that does not create an output file?

Are you using the feature or art that lets you rewind the input file and reply events?

I just mean use getMany to allow for any given choices by the user. The issues is that its filling the list of say clusters but that its not drawing them at the draw stage, after the first event. It's probably unrelated to the change in input, and perhaps just part of the code which has not been tested yet
