Btw, what version of FLASH are these files?

Opening the files with load() works with some very minor modifications to the flash frontend.  Unfortunately, it seems like we won't be easy to instantiate the hierarchy unless the particle file is written out at the same time as a normal file.

However, the particle files I have are nonstandard and so the particle reader I've come up with may not work with the default particle types that come with FLASH.  I'm curious if anyone would like to share a more vanilla particle file dataset so I can test my yt modifications.
