Default TRDATA file clean-up

Folks,

Attached below is a cleaned-up version of the TRDATA.CSV file. There is an irritating bug in the data concerning our reversed nose cones. RockSim sees these nose cones as transitions, and as such, requires the smaller end to be greater than 0.0000". When RockSim sees a zero value, it chokes (gracefully, at least -- it tells you it's having a problem and allows you to correct it).

The correction to this file changed all of those values to 0.0001", which is fully acceptable to RockSim. The program now happily moves along without complaining.

ADDENDUM: This file only contains SEMROC components, but includes those which are duplicates of Estes components. It does not contain the entire database of components offered by Apogee in their RockSim distribution. Just be aware of this ommission, and if you need the other companies' component catalogs, you can still add them back with a little spreadsheet editing.
