                              ACTIVITY LOG
(* means a trouble report has been issued or appended to)
1st Half Observing specialist: Deglman
Telescope was not opened on schedule due to clouds.  Opened at 21:20.
Telecope failed to slew from UW08's Remark initially, but worked after a
slew from APO's Remark interface.  Clouds returned and telescope was
closed again at 23:00.  The DIMM was not started because of the virtually
continuous cloud cover.
2nd Half Observing Specialist: McMillan
Second half was mostly cloudy, and the telescope was closed until
04:00, when the clouds thinned slightly.  Only a few useful images
were obtained, and among those no image motion was detected.  An LVDT
monitor was running in the control room, and the only variations
appeared at the very beginnings of slews.
