    Bright ones *are* useful. We're following them photometrically at TNG,
    and will do so at WIYN in May and June. There is also VLT time to get
    late-time lightcurve points. We can probably follow something like 5
    supernovae, although it will depend on redshift. This includes the
    "end-of-night" set in the list I sent out before.
