On Oct 23 both Kit Barger and Doug Holstein saw a geyser erupt
on Geyser Hill which they could not identify.  It was 20-25 feet tall 
but seemed to last too long to be Plume (about 40 seconds).  
Inquiring minds would like to know some more about this eruption (as well, of 
course, anything about continuing and future action):
-- Was the play a steady jet, or bursting? Since it seemed "too long to be 
Plume," I gather that there must of been some sort of intermittency within the 
eruption itself.
-- Was the duration of this geyser 40 seconds, or is the above saying that it 
seemed longer than Plume's 40 seconds?
-- How wide is the runoff channel?
-- The minor eruptions on October 24 were "frequent." You guessed the 
question: Is that seconds; minutes? And what sort of durations of the minors?

Congratulations to the observers.
