TWP/MPL/C1 - SunShade timing problem
DataStreams:twpmplC1.a1, twpmplC1.00, twpmplsmask1clothC1.c1, twpmplcmask1clothC1.c1
Description:
For an unknown reason, the sun shade was dropping for less then 10 minutes during the 
night at about 19:00 UTC between Dec 14, 2003 and Feb 17, 2004.  Data taken during that ten 
minute interval is not looking at the sky and should be considered as though it were 
missing.

This is a fairly small effect.  Data users can simply average across the interval or block 
the records as "missing".
Suggestions: 
Disregard this 10 minutes of data during each of the days in the specified time period.
