Rauch (Carnegie) report:\n\n\"We obtained a spectrum of the optical afterglow of GRB 080310 (GCNs 7381, \n7382) using the MagE spectrograph on the Magellan/Clay 6.5-m telescope. \nFrom preliminary analysis we determine a redshift of about 1.7 based on \nbroad Ly-alpha absorption at ~3300A.  Further observations and analysis \nare on-going.\"",
