    AO Piscium, the curtain falls

    Olde Whiteface is getting too close to AO Psc, and will remain too close
    for 5 days.  I think it's *now* time to end the campaign.
    
    IP Peg is no picnic either, but should possibly stay visible as the Moon 
    never gets closer than about 16 degrees.  That's a good one for continuing
    coverage.
    
    The new kid on the block is V709 Cas, nee RX0028+593.  Time to start that
    campaign up in earnest.  The bright-star replacement is V592 Cas, probably
    the best one for the bright nights which lie immediately ahead.
    
    Sorry they're all northern, but I'm hoping the southerners can help us on
    IP Peg!
