Night Assistant: 
None
Problems: 

The guider sometimes reacts slowly: is that the machine 'ctioxb' or the VNC connection? 
File1170 'Gamma Vel' lost counts as  a consequence of the problem with the guider.

Comments: 

Beginning of the night the seeing reached 4 ["], later it slowly improved.
Just like in the previous night, Tololo's DIMM stops at 07:02 UT. Why?
'HR 1218' @ 06:49:30 UT a smooth earthquake, telescope ok, we did not stop.
Last integration of 'gamma Vel' ended with the Sun at -9.6 degrees of altitude.
