Hey Paul, 
I don't know if I say this enough, but thanks for being there after my hours end. You're just far enough west to overlap my observations on some sessions. I love it when we both get to observe the same night (or morning) and I can compare our own experiences. And you're a stubborn observer like me. I admire that!
