In the course of observations this evening, we tried to observe 
the Elias infrared standard star G158-27 with the 3.5m We were 
unable to locate it even in f/5 mode. A check of telescope pointing
on both an SAO star and another Elias standard showed it to be dead-on.
I looked up the star with Simbad and found it to be a high proper 
motion star (-0.8", -1.8"). If you are using Elias standars, be aware of 
this one.
