[Halld-tagger] double-clad light guide is shipping from Saint Gobain!

[Richard Jones]

Hello Eugene,

Good news from Saint Gobain today. They are shipping the first of 6 spools
of replacement light guide fiber to us today. They measured the light
attenuation length on this spool and it passes their specs, and they have
verified that it is double clad. They have the remaining 5 spools in their
queue, and expect to complete the order within a couple of months. They are
shipping us the first spool so that we can get started right away if we
want to.

We can discuss the implications of this at our meeting on Monday, but it is
good news. I think this means that we can cancel plans to order more
single-clad light guide to replace the painted fibers.

Question: did you ever put through the order for another 100m of scifi?  We
are down to the last few cm of scintillating fiber.
