The island slab that my GEM sits on seems to move in a wet/dry season
cycle. This shows on the drift with the laser.
Fortunately, I have fine Azimuth and altitude adjustment of the GEM
tripod and a night of Drift Explorer in K3CCDTools has this fixed.
If you think any slab, at least the slab a typical backyarder lays,
is not going to move some amount, you are kidding yourself.
