There is a recorder at Giant (at least there was the last I knew) and it
belongs to Jens Day, deployed under my research permit.  The data will be
made public as soon as I hear about it.  I do not know when Jens plans do
the next download.

#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?
