Coordination• Conclusions:

– I wish I don’t have to sleep– Have a wristwatch running UT– Maybe everyone should try Dave’s coffee while observing?

fromDavid Moorhouse <[email protected]>to Subo Dong [email protected]

Special observations require the right type of coffee I think we have some very noisy non-normalized data on the left hand side.

Isn’t this a planet???Isn’t this a planet???
