    Hi hstsearch,

        I'll be formulating a response to Adam including a few postage stamps
    of our available follow-up. Rob and Saul both are fine with this.

    Dear Rachel,

       Well my goal is to know, if we see another one like
       this, whether to change the exposure times and by how much.
       Your summary that all was "as expected" or "ratty" is a bit
       less information than I was hoping for. Can you send me some jpeg postage
       stamps of the SN in the grism and images (2-D scaled, contrast set
       to show background noise)? (I recall showing similar stuff
       at the SNAP collaboration meeting from GOODS. It can be very valuable to
       see these precious few examples when planning for future observations).
       
       Also, was it rising or declining?
       
       -Adam
