Observing Summary:

At the very beginning of the night there were some clouds but they cleared within
30 mins or so.  From then on the weather was very good.  We saw the diagonal streaks
from last night on 2 consecutive images tonight, but then they went away.  They 
appeared after taking lamps (but last night that didn't seem to be the case).  After 
those 2 images, the diagonal lines went away and we had no further problems.
