Resent from Barbara Santorella due to email problems, which I have fixed.

>We're running ABS hydrogen at a spin angle of 48 degrees. The plan is to

>Compton false asymmetry is down. Polarization is also down a bit. Bill

>Keep an eye on the wire chamber drift time spectra (twl and twr in the
>OnlineGui), as the flow rate was reduced this morning to 3 slm of
>helium. We can go back to 4 slm (or even 5) if we start losing the large
>drift distances again.

>ABS nozzle may clog up again in the next day or so. You'll see ligit
>drop. Ask the chief operator to call Ernie Ihloff. He or Peter Binns will
>come in to start the warm up. In the meantime, we'll run empty target.

>Sometimes ligit takes a jump up. There is evidently a problem between the
>RF and the static field of the MFT (Hauke made an entry a few days
>ago). For that time that ligit is high, Genya believes the target is
>unpolarized. I believe we still take data during that time, because it's a
>failure, the sequencing software believes the target is in a well-defined
>polarized state.

>We are still having network problems. The T1 link to the outside world is
>down while Ernie and Barbara work on the problem. Usually we can still
