I would also recommend not reporting this huge amount of data directly to
the list but to a sub-list or some place where the data could be storaged
for a later review in search of some event.
These data might be useful for some **very large amplitude event** and this
won't probably ever be the csae with the bright stars are being reported....
Maybe when something is founf, then only that observation should be
reported. meanwhile, it cooud be available and storage in some url or
something that one could consult.
Mixing this extremely big amount of numbers with better quality data makes
me not want to look at the vsnet archives for individual stars
anymore....;-((
And e-mail boxes of those who were subscribed to most vsnet-lists are
getting full too quickly with the vsnet-recent messages generated for each
observation sent...
I had to get unsubscribed at least to vsnet-recent-unknown to "survive this
survey" !!!

Regards,
Sebastian.
