So far, X-ray data have allowed H_0 estimates towards two of these, both giving ``low'' values that are self-consistent, though it is essential to obtain many more estimates to reduce the effects of cluster projection. We have also discovered a decrement towards the z=3.8 quasar pair PC1643+4631A&B (198'' separation); substantial X-ray, optical and infrared follow-up show that the cluster responsible is either at z>1 or very underluminous and that very significant gravitational lensing must be occuring.5 pages, LaTex, uses 'cmb.sty' (included), 1 PostScript figure.
