We thank the many observers who contributed to the measurements reported here and acknowledge the efforts and dedication of the Keck Observatory staff, especially S. Dahm, H. Tran, and G. Hill for support of HIRES and G. Wirth for support of remote observing. We acknowledge R. P. Butler and S. Vogt for many years of contributing to the data presented here. A.H. acknowledges support from a Townes Postdoctoral Fellowship at the UC Berkeley Space Sciences Laboratory. G.M. acknowledges NASA grant NNX06AH52G. Finally, we extend special thanks to those of Hawai'ian ancestry on whose sacred mountain of Mauna Kea we are privileged to be guests.
