Actually, I've decided the trend I saw was due to the target itself - it
IS a variable star after all! Again, the target and comp star have very
similar B-V (and V-R) values.
Is that book available on line? I've been sending Bruce ExoPlanet Light
curves and was wondering about how he corrects them for air mass.
