RS OPHIUCHI
Further to the issue earlier today of E-Circular 2200 and Early Warning 
Circular 180, John Toone reminds TA subscribers that RS Oph was Variable 
Star of The Year in the 2005 BAA Handbook and hopefully this current 
outburst will allow us to fully resolve the physical outburst mechanism.

Editor: A typing error occurred on E-Circular 2200 and the star's name 
should have, of course, read RS Ophiuchi. Apologies - probably due to 
early morning fatigue!
