Observing Summary:


Program completed with some difficulties such as system crashes
and bad seeing.  I stoped observing at an earlier time due to a crash
at the very end of the night.

Yesterday, Paul Schmidtke mentioned me about a past experience
he had had with the mirror shifting on it's cell at the 0.9m here at Tololo,
and, as he explained it to me, it did just that.  It shifts at the
same time and position.  Not so weird...

Charles: I need to know what tapes I can reuse for I have runned out
of MAZA backup tapes.

cheers
