Please note that there is another WIND perigee pass on 251-252 with an
 excellant configuration of spacecraft towards the end of 252 with GEOTAIL
 around the centre of the tail and IMP-8 in the northern lobe - POLAR will
 be imaging the midnight region for as long as possible so hopefully if
 there are substorms this will turn into an excellent ISTP period - I will
 be submitting this as a SPOT.
