sometimes the system is caught in a deep and steep energy well with
wide barriers so that the assignment of new velocities also doesn't
work.  if the system is constructed from a previous simulation, find a
few time frames before and re-construct.  otherwise i suppose you
could identify the faulty atom and delete the nearest water molecule.
