(* means a trouble report has been issued or appended to)
The telescope was opened at 19:40. The UC12 time was donated to Mike Strauss,
as agreed upon by the site manager. (An agreement had been made to arrange
for images taken with SPICAM to be donated to the UC12 project for the time).
Mike Strauss, Zeljko Ivezic, and Chris Stubbs all participated in the PU02
run.  They were able to take twilight flats, but a storm front moved in around
21:20, and caused us to close the telescope.  The sky became completely
overcast, and the dewpoint quickly increased.  The dewpoint continued to
fluctuate until 1:00, when the sky finally cleared.  We reopened at this time,
and Michael proceeded with the help of Chris.  The skies stayed hazy for the
rest of the evening.
