    Targets for Thursday night

    Actually, TT Ari started and ended its flare phase right on schedule 
    last night.  I assume this regularity will fall apart soon, but let's
    keep up the watch until it does.  The prediction is that it will enter 
    the flare phase around 6h UT tonight, peak around 9h, and end around 
    12h.  Let's keep it up!
    
    If it's clear in the southwest, then we can afford other targets too.
    They're all still viable... except for BG CMi, which we'll leave till 
    January or so.  I definitely love XSS0056!
