c   root broadcasts the data
c   The data isn't contiguous or of the same type, so it's not
c   clear how to send it in the "MPI" way. 
c   We could pack the info into a buffer or we could create
c   an obscene datatype to handle it all at once. Since we only
c   broadcast the data once, just use a separate broadcast for
c   each piece.
