    Lori et al.,

    This position of course is well within the GTO pointing so we have the
    archival reference image. FYI, below is a plot of the position of the
    red sequence objects in the ACS frame for CL1604+4304. The blue "X"
    corresponds to your position. The intersection of the red lines is the
    mean position of the red sequence objects (1.47 < [V-I] < 2.25) in our
    ACS image, which corresponds to 16:04:22.6 +43:04:39.72. The position I
    cited yesterday is denoted by the green diamond in the figure. So my
    revised position given by the red lines might be a compromise - it's
    17.5 arcsec from yours and 16 arcsec from my original position of last
    night. But I will leave it to Lori's assessment.

    Cheers,
    Marc
