Hi Tom,

If you can do a cadence time faster than 25 s, I recommend DQ Her - we 
really could use some late-season timings.  And igr0023+61 would be a 
good follow-on - another pulser, but not so fast.

BTW I'm planning on bringing a bunch of students out to AZ in mid-March. 
We have a week on both the 52-inch and 94-inch telescopes... and I'm a 
little handicapped in supervising 'em because it partly overlaps with a 
CV conference in Tucson.  I'll have some other help with me (likely 
Jonathan); but I'd like to invite you to come spend some time with us - 
and to help teach the students how to do photometry.  I realize you'll 
have to learn the system there, but I believe you'll catch on fast - and 
I expect you can sort of become an eligible observer there too.  In case 
you covet a little more aperture here and there!

Whaddayathink?
