Are there special considerations of the science party or cruise scheduling?     
Consider science time constraints; coordination of equipment shipping;          
two-ship operations; weather windows; mooring turn-around; teaching schedules   
and others that will affect scheduling decisions.                               
-------------------------------------------------                               
This project is being coordinated with paralell projects by scientists from the 
University of Washington (Chuck Nittrouer, Andrea Ogston, Richard Sternberg)    
and State University of New York (Robert Aller).  Please, schedule my leg       
between the legs associated with the projects of Nittrouer et al., and Aller.
