    Last night after Superbird A I saw Gorizont 14 (87-040A, 
17969) and what seems pretty certain to have been BS/Yuri 
3A (97-077A, 20771).  Gorizont 14's flash period was 
about 97.5 seconds; my 10 cycles occurred at about 3:55
to 4:10 UTC.  BS/Yuri 3A's half-period was about 95.5 
seconds; its first two and last flashes were very bright, 
at least +3 if not brighter; I saw it from about 4:15 to
4:28.  Running out of time now; PPAS reports later.
