    Clouds!  We had some thunderstorms around, and clouds in all 
    directions.  Mike McCants drove and I rode along, and when 
    we stopped NE of Austin a very few minutes early we could 
    see important stars, but within three or four minutes a 
    cloud offshoot from thunderstorm to the south managed to 
    block our view.  Meanwhile back in Austin Sue Worden tried
    also but had similar results.  Bad luck.  I'm of course very 
    glad that Paul Gabriel did see it and hope someone east or 
    west had similar good luck!  
    
    Geoid?  What geoid?  What's a geoid?  Actually, I recently 
    got new (estimated) 4th decimal places for the BCRC location 
    using the Terraserver.
