[Geysers] Geyser report Frid June 6

[Ralph Taylor]

A quick perusal of the Great Fountain electronic data indicates wild phase
activity in September 1999, February 2000, September 2000, November 2001,
December 2002, October 2003, and October 2006.  I didn't look closely for
exact dates; these times are based on very short (<6hour) intervals that
usually occur just before a wild phase.

Scott's "Now what?" may have been rhetorical, but for those who have never
seen a "recovery" from wild phase, Great Fountain may go into a period of up
to several days where it does one false overflow after another after another
after another, etc. These false overflows may, or may not, continue for
several days.   Finally, with no sign that I've ever figured out (although
I've only seen two recoveries from "wild phease" Bot Hoffman told me he'd
never been able to figure out a preliminary indicator either), one of the
overflows becomes a true overflow and Great Fountain goes back to normal
activity.

Yes, the "Now what?" certainly was rhetorical. Question: is there a list
(whether complete or not) of when wild phase has been observed?
 
Given the comparison to 1994, it seems that overflow might be seen tomorrow
and that the following 2 to 4 days could be quite interesting. I'll be there
(if it doesn't snow too much... again ! ).
