The bright 2.3 micron hot spot seen in eclipse on 95/03/23 and
95/03/30 (but not 95/03/16) was seen in Jupiter eclipse again
this morning (9:30 UT, 95/04/08).  It had faded considerably
since 3/30, but Io was still brighter at 2.3 microns than
it had been on 3/16.  The bright spot disappeared quite early
in the Jupiter occultation, just before the predicted occultatoin
of the center of Io, and thus does *not* appear to be Loki
which would have disappeared later.
