Brian,
Thanks for clarifying that. Michael if very multi-talented. And, sorry for
misspelling your name! Oh, and thanks for the weather advice on third quarter
observing this week.
Paul

Bryan,
Isn't Michael Collins your new instrument maker? I'm into machining
telescope parts (perhaps not a skilled as Mike; he's worked in my shop and
you can ask him). I'd be interested if it were just a summer job! It's
roasting down here!
Michael is mainly being an electroniker wizard at the
moment, everything from telescope control software computer
details to new audio speakers for the 42-inch telescope.
He has also recently fixed a long-standing problem with
power to the dome-shutter at our robotic 31-inch telescope.
I'm very grateful to have somebody really smart working on
these sorts of things.
\Brian
