(* means a trouble report has been issued or appended to)
The telescope was not opened this evening.  The ice and crusty snow has
not melted from the enclosure roof and the humidity and dust counts were
extremely high all evening.
Dave cole and Gordon Richards were available for UC09 (ADLER), but were shut
out by the weather.
Joni Johnson (NM09) and Austin Tomaney (UW12) both called in to check on the
status of the telescope, and were informed of the current situation.
Alberto Noriega-Crespo was shut out by the weather also.
