It is obvious I suppose, but just to make it formal:

The retraction/evaporation/disappearance of the lensing galaxy
eliminates the only significant evidence for strong lensing
of GRB 990123, so I do not plan to instigate an APO monitoring
program to look for the appearance of additional images.  Bright
moonlight and bad weather prevented us from wasting any telescope
time on the project, by the way.
