Problems: 

DECAL broke the SISPI interlock a couple of times and Telops had to reboot the computer. Maybe David James should take a look when he has a chance.
Quick Reduce was failing on some fraction of the images with a python error. This is under investigation by Angelo and Luiz.

Comments: 

TASCA seems to have stopped running on Nov 10. Douglas Tucker finds it useful to compare TASCA with RASICAM so he was wondering when it might be fixed.
Seeing was good all night and the DIMM worked consistently.
