    keyword=re: cryo, it's due to hall C

    Hall C is having some sort of crisis with their target.  I don't
    understand it 100%, but something to do with their fan quitting and
    the target partly freezing.  They're on the phone with experts, etc.
    
    This is the root cause of the cryo instability.  On our end, it so far
    means yellow alarms and 1 K excursions in the target temp, so I guess 
    we'll just ride the storm. Our measely 3 uA beam is not hard to deal with.
    The HRS looks stable, I guess it's decoupled somewhat.
