CHIP COMMENT: Wed May 21 17:09:27 GMT 1997 Used Kill to stop, ejected tape, turned off tape drive for several minutes, turned drive back on, after a few minutes I loaded the same tape again, started up again with Run. So far there aren't any error messages and observing program is running normally. LOW-L COMMENT: Wed May 21 17:11:40 GMT 1997 L00455 popped out of drive #0 and data are going to L00456 in drive #1 as they should be, transition worked correctly automatically. No tape cleaning LEDs blinking so I just loaded L00457 into drive #0 without cleaning that drive first. COMMENT: Wed May 21 17:14:43 GMT 1997 I noticed yesterday morning that the front passenger side strut on the GSA car didn't seem to be damping well as I came up the bumpy road. I checked it out this morning and found that the strut is frozen, there is no travel at all for that wheel. I'll check into the best way to get it fixed.
