IDL, cosmic rays

Neal Weiner and I got working on his use of IDL and reading of FITS files. We spent a significant amount of time setting environment variables! He asked "is this what astrophysics research is like?". I answered "absolutely".

Burles took care of the cosmic rays in the HST/ACS data on the COSMOS field. It turns out that STScI flags them for you if you have a CR split or multiple exposures with (close to) the same pointing.
