My wife just completed a work shift, so she's off, but her second job at the observatory has a run tonight (lunar laser ranging). She tried to get her boss to do it, but he's out of town and he's the only other one who can run the system, so she's kinda stuck (the cost of telescope time, regardless of whether you get weathered out, is approx $1,000 an hour). But she emailed him and the telescope director that she's not going to respond to any emails today and will send out the results of the run tomorrow.

....huh.

He should've expected this.
