Re: IMPORTANT INFORMATION about the Gemini-II beta program
I never suggested you didn't - I merely reported that your email isn't in the list of pending applications for GeminiL6Beta If you applied to join Gemini-II_Beta - that's a quite different group.

Re: Comet Tracking Issues
HI Lloyd, that sounds like the right process for training comet rate. What's strange is that it sounds like between two attempts to train the divisor values were very different -- is that true? Not
