COMMENTS:        SWIFT UVOT Position Notice.  
COMMENTS:        This Notice was ground-generated -- not flight-generated.  
COMMENTS:        The BAT position for this trigger matched a source in the BAT ground catalog.  
COMMENTS:        This is a RETRACTION of a previous notice that identified this as a burst afterglow -- it is NOT a GRB.  
COMMENTS:        Position inconsistent with XRT position.  
COMMENTS:        Source is probably a high proper motion star.
