Bob, there's something I've wondered about.  I assume
that PLOP is looking at the worst-case scenario with
the mirror flat on it's back facing Dobson's Hole at
the zenith.  Is it the case that the deformation would
be less when it is pointed at lower elevations?  I'd
imagine it would vary with the sine of the
altitude--does that sound about right?
