Hi Dan,
It affects both me physically and the equipment. I cannot use the IR SSP-4 and
while it would have little effect on the spectroscopy, the CCD cameras get very
noisy even with the cooling. It is extremely uncomfortable. I have tried a fan,
but I cannot even feel the breeze. The last half of June through the first part
of September is very hard, but most of the rest of the year is great.

Curious, Jeff, if all that IR bouncing around inside your hot
observatory actually interferes with measurements, or just makes it
physically uncomfortable? -Dan Heim
