+The Wolff cluster Monte Carlo algorithm accelerates lattice stat-mech
+models near criticality. External fields, ignored by Wolff, are of
+significant current importance, e.g. for information geometry, universal
+scaling of correlation functions, and essential singularities in critical
+properties just in our group. We evaluate a little-known extension to
+Wolff (e.g., unknown to expert Jon Machta) to demonstrate that it
+largely eliminates critical slowing down in a variety of models, and
+generalize the extension to arbitrary fields.
