Hey Jeff,
Are you getting this variable like this:
pf.parameters['EOSCriticalDensity']
or like this:
pf.get_parameter('EOSCriticalDensity', float)
If it's the first, then Dave is right that many of the pf parameters are not
loaded by default, in which case you need to do the second way the first
time. After you've done that, you can refer to it with pf.parameters every
time after that.
