In addition to this README file, the tar file contains 2 ascii data files, 
separately listing the PLANET collaboration light curve for the Galactic 
Bulge microlensing event MACHO 97-BLG-28 in the Johnson V (MB9728.v.dat) 
and Cousins I (MB9728.i.dat) bands.  The data are arranged as follows:

col1    date            HJD - 2449719.0
col2    magnitude       Johnson V or Cousins I magnitude reported by DoPhot
col3    DoPhot err      Uncertainty reported by DoPhot in magnitudes 
col4    F.Q. err        Frame Quality uncertainty in magnitudes (see paper)    
col5    site		Observing site where data were taken
                              L = LaSilla     (Dutch/ESO 0.9m)
                              S = Sutherland  (SAAO 1.0m)                
                              T = Tasmania    (Canopus Observatory 1.0m)
col6	Quality		Quality switch for inclusion in fitting (see paper)
                              1 = high quality 
                              0 = poor quality
