#164  Mike Keller reported the signs washed sometime between 4/1  and 4/8.  
Based on observation of the platform, he estimated it had  erupted two days 
prior.  I believe that was based on the type of recovery  seen earlier in the 
year.  As we found out the week of April 17, the  recovery pattern changed 
sometime prior to the third week of April, and  possibly earlier than that.  
Hopefully the electronic monitor will give a  better date and time for that eruption.

I'm  sure all of us keeping lists will scramble to update them when/if the 
next  electronic record becomes available. 
 
Thanks to Lynn and Paul for the corrections/updates. I hope all is now  
correct, and so I am again attaching the entire list as a Word file. This is  
current as of late afternoon, Thursday, May 4, 2006. I will be in to Old  Faithful 
later today, although mostly as a "tourist" rather than as a gazer  (opening 
day for Snow Lodge, where step-daughter Sherri is a dining room server,  as 
well as opening day for Lodge and upper store).
 
I do want to ask regarding the above statement about Giant's electronic  
record. I asked this question at Old Faithful the other day and nobody had an  
answer. Is there an operating recorder at Giant? If so, it is Jens Day's  
recorder or is it a Park Service recorder? (This would seem to make a big  difference 
as to when the data might be available.) Lastly, if there is not a  NPS 
recorder there, is it possible that one could be placed there, SOON?
