INORDER TO COMPLETE THE COMPUTER ROOM RENOVATION
EFFORT WE NEED TO MOVE THE GINI SYSTEM.  I WOULD LIKE TO 
TAKE THE GINI DOWN FOR 2 - 4 HOURS ON APRIL 13 BEGINNING AT 
0400Z AND MOVE IT.  ACCORDING TO SCHEDULE THIS IS DURING 
THE EAST ECLIPS PERIOD.  DURING THIS TIME NO DATA WILL BE 
RECEIVED OR TRANSMITTED.
