I hadn't seen anything in the log that was sent out but then I noticed that it was a repeat of Ben's log. Sent out Allens log and noticed that he had figured out what had happened with Comp yesterday. Steve was relieved to hear that. ___end___ GENERAL OBSERVATORY COMMENT BY waters: Sat Apr 26 00:12:45 GMT 2014 Fixed a couple of the walk way planks. Might have to switch one out but so far it's holding. When swapping the batteries for the craftsman drill and putting it on the charger, the light for defective battery came on, the red light flashed and it wouldn't charge. Currently sitting next to the charger. ___end___
