    it only seems like I'm in a rut -- I was surrounded
    by thunderstorms, sky would go from 80/20 to 10/90
    with sat flashes harmonized by lightning flashes.
    I had packed everything up earlier in the evening,
    but around 0330 ut the sky seemed somewhat more clear
    than cloudy so I found a familiar target.
    sat continues to spin up at ~ 0.011 sec/day.
    ps to Allen, I was going to obs 25724 99023A for position
    and mag, but sky was too overcast at 0250 ut.  based on
    KBRO radar I doubt you saw it (or it looked like you had
    a lot of rain)
    no aurora seen :(
