 Three dimensions is below the upper critical dimension $4\frac12$, and so mean
 field theory should break down sufficiently close to the critical point due to
-fluctuations \cite{hornreich_lifshitz_1980}. Mean field theory neglects the
-effect of fluctuations on critical behavior, yet also predicts the magnitude of
-those fluctuations. This allows a mean field theory to undergo an internal
-consistency check to ensure the predicted fluctuations are indeed negligible in the region under consideration.
-This is typically done by computing the Ginzburg temperature
-\cite{ginzburg_remarks_1961}, which gives the proximity to the critical point

 Our fit above gives $\xi_{\perp0}q_*=(D_\perp
-q_*^4/aT_c)^{1/4}\simeq2$. The estimate here predicts
-that an experiment may begin to see deviations from mean field behavior within
+q_*^4/aT_c)^{1/4}\simeq2$, which combined with the speculation of $q_*\simeq\pi/a_3$ puts the bare correlation length $\xi_{\perp0}$ at about what one would expect for a generic magnetic transition.
+The argeement of this data in the $t\sim0.1$--10 range with the mean field exponent suggests that this region is outside the Ginzburg region, but an experiment may begin to see deviations from mean field behavior within
 around several degrees Kelvin of the critical point. A \rus\ experiment with more precise
 temperature resolution near the critical point may be able to resolve a
 modified cusp exponent $\gamma\simeq1.31$ \cite{guida_critical_1998}, since the
 universality class of a uniaxial modulated scalar \op\ is $\mathrm O(2)$
-\cite{garel_commensurability_1976}. Our work here appears self--consistent,
-given that our fit is mostly concerned with temperatures ten to hundreds of
-Kelvin from the critical point. This analysis also indicates that we should not
-expect any quantitative agreement between mean field theory and experiment in
-the low temperature phase since, by the point the Ginzburg criterion is
