This meter's swivel was fouled by rope; the recorded directions
were not useful. The record contains only speed and temperature.

A four hour episode of below-threshhold speeds on 14 Mar 91 and
a seven hour episode on 30 Mar 91 may be due to rotorcounter
failures.  The record contains many below-threshhold speeds but
these two instances stand out because of their abruptness.

Portions of the temperature series starting in Sep 90 and continuing
through Jan 91 have an unusual configuration. Use these temperatures
with caution.

CMDAC has prepared an alternate version of this file in which a
speed spike on 19 Mar 91 and another on 26 Jun 91 have been smoothed
by linear interpolation.  Both the original file and the alternate
version are available on this disk.
