Where do the mice live?

NIC-FPS Response:

Until you brought up this important issue, we had not even considered
it. We are grateful for bringing this to our attention. We rapidly
formed a tiger team to resolve this issue once and for all.

With your approval, we would like to employ you and your friends as a
backup filter wheel drive mechanism. We are sure that you will enjoy
running around in circles for a good purpose. The Observing Specialists
may also request your services during routine LN2 refills on NIC-FPS
and to retrieve small items that drop in awkward locations. In return,
the Observing Specialists will you provide living space in their
office, and any leftovers from the kitchen.

Note that conditions on your employment are that you, your family,
friends and guests shall not chew through electrical cables or fiber
optics, and you stay away from optical surfaces. It would be wise that
you not sneak up and scare Madonna.


Status:  If the mice agree, then this issue is closed.
