Very cool and just the sort of innovative UI the VObs applications need -
well done, Al.

> The view of the top scrollable area is represented by a light

> feel for the interface you might want to just drag around the 
> top bar as things will move slower (days, rather than months).

> Each event is represented by a marker, and clicking on the 
> marker will bring up additional data and links for that event 
> (in the month view the marker is represented by a small blue 
> bar rather than a discrete data point).

> The OGLE event data is also displayed normally in table form
