All:

I'm pleased to say that we appear to have GRIM2 working again, due to a
commendable effort by Steve Knapp, Mark Klaene, and Jim Fowler, with
long-distance help from Dale Sandford and Mark Hereld.  The problem was a
failure of a time-delay sequencer which powers up one of the several power
supplies in a particular order.

For those of you with upcoming GRIM2 runs, assume the instrument will be
operational.  For those of you who lost allocated GRIM2 time since last
weekend, Ed Turner and I will try to find ways to re-schedule your runs
over the coming weeks, but no guarantees.  Time lost to "engineering
problems" is not booked against your institution's share of observing time.
