void lar_cluster3d::SkeletonAlg::GetSkeletonHits	(	const reco::HitPairListPtr &	inputHitList,

Return the skeleton hits from the input list.

   - note that this presumes the skeleton hits have been found already

Parameters

inputHitList	- input list of pointers to internal Cluster3D 3D hits
skeletonHitList	- output list of skeleton hits
