              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: G.Saurage
Clearer with less dust than previous two nights. Mediocre seeing. Nice lunar eclipse
in the morning.
NICFPS failed a handful of times at one position, ~-80 degrees or so. Re-initing
worked each time and that was the only location that we saw any failures tonight.
No other problems. Would be good to CO2 the mirror.
