 The metal line rest frame $W_{{\rm r}}$ are measured
  for the lowest redshift systems in the SDSS spectrum for~Q1408, and
  the UVES data for Q1108. The SDSS spectra give values consistent
  within the uncertainties with the UVES data. The SDSS spectrum of
  Q1408 is too noisy to identify the \ion{Mg}{i}~line.
