Extended the dome slot.
**PSPT PROBLEM**: Thu Jun 29 20:30:29 GMT 2000
Another PSPT program crash, at 20:04:17, with the following messages:
on IDL xterm window:
memidl.c: timeout waiting for memimage queue.
BDARK (PSPT_IMAGE)
                INT      =      0
memidl.c: timeout waiting for memimage queue.
KDARK (PSPT_IMAGE)
                INT      =      0

IDL>

then on the GUI observing window:
Taking BLUE dark image
Bad image ...
Taking CaK dark image
Bad image ...
Taking RED dark image


Also, the telescope is still locked on the sun with the active mirror activated.
Will try to restart.
**MLSO PROBLEM**: Thu Jun 29 20:38:15 GMT 2000
Spar lost Dec guiding, repointed and reset guiding.
**PSPT PROBLEM**: Thu Jun 29 20:52:38 GMT 2000
I restarted the program with only one try (for the first time since PSPT was insinstalled here) by first killing the runPspt.pro task then typing in Pspt
as usual in the xterm window, but then skipping the PSPT/Start up step and
going directly to the DATA/Daily Obs step.  This avoided the inevitable
stall that happens during a crash-forced restart at the shutter testing point
of the PSPT/Start up step.  Maybe this will work with the other types of
crashes we get.  Note that the telescope was pointed and locked on the sun
between the crash and the invoking of the DATA/Daily Obs step.
WEATHER COMMENT: Thu Jun 29 21:03:08 GMT 2000
Very thick orographic clouds are starting to cover MLSO, closing down.
