  I like this idea.  It explores a region of phase space --
continous monitoring of a few selected areas -- which TASS hasn't
tried yet.

  Hmmm.  I like this idea less.  I don't think that three different
V-band images of the same region taken at nearly the same time
will reveal much that isn't apparent with the current scheme.
