(* means a trouble report has been issued or appended to)
The telescope was opened at 20:15 and closed at 00:45 MDT due to
clouds.  It was reopened at 03:20.  The observers were myself for PU01
and Dick Henry, Karen Kwitter, and Sarah Kate Mae for UW08.
The sky started to cloud up with thick cirrus soon after it got dark.
At least most of the observing was spectroscopy.  Although some time
was lost to clouds, the UW observers were able to observe two more
objects after we reopened.

comments are being emailed to me - I'll have to send them out when I
get them.
