Mesa Safety Sign In and Out Links

In order to hopefully take care of observer safety, there are a series
of forms that are available to sign in when you arrive at the telescope
and to sign out when you leave. There is extra information that will
be asked for in order to help track the status and health of the telescope.
Your cooperation is appreciated.
