                               ACTIVITY LOG
The telescope was open tonight at 19:05.
Mazeh Konigl observed remotely from Israel this evening. He stated that it was
a very good night.  He was using GRIM and he encountered a few problems when
the script he was running hung.
Connie Rockosi was observing the second half using SPICAM.
Comments: Weather and telescope both seemed fine, though there was some
difficulty getting SPICAM to driftscan, which I will discuss with Gene Magnier.
I was the observer for Lens Monitoring.  I observed 2237 with SPICAM.
