A thread from @TheLancet @CovidCommission on school closures:

@eric_mdm74 @niais @stephtdouglas @erinleeryan I have some pretty epic stories about the 2.4m including Bob disengaging the Dec motors to manually back out the telescope from the hard limit after an IC failed and (separately) a skunk in the anteroom to the dome. 😵‍💫
