Opening was also delayed by clouds. The observers were Dave Cole for Adler and Xiao Hui Fan for PU02. Adler was clouded out and Xiao Hui got one good galaxy spectrum plus one partially clouded out spectrum before we had to close again. OBSERVER COMMENTS Xiao Hui (pu02) - "only 40 min observation and everything seems fine except weather."
