Ah, thanks, I found a few after searching around a bit. Is there no way to indicate in 
the a plan which objects have an observation without selecting each, one at a time?

Also, it seems I have no observations prior to the start of the "global observations" 
feature in 1.x.  Is there any way to export these older observations into the global DB?
