I wonder how many of you have wanted to do a computer search on GOSA Press'
unpublished manuscripts?  After many years of looking for an inexpensive
method I finally was able to scan them and create searchable Adobe Reader
(pdf) documents.  Only a few manuscripts are _not_ available in electronic
format for reasons which shall remain unstated.  Those that are now
available for purchase are: "Lesser Known Thermal Features ." (same as
paper, in two parts, D1 and D2); ". Norris ." (D3); ". Heart Lake ." (D4);
"Inventory ., by . Marler" (D5); "1997 Thermal Observations." (D8); "Potts
Hot Spring Basin Survey" (D9); and  "Notes on . Lower Geyser Basin ." (D10).
Price is $9 each, which represents a considerable savings over paper on
several levels.  Descriptions are online and on the Mail Order Form.  Only
difference is the code changes from "P" (printed) to "D" (digital).  There
are far too many items to display them all in print in the "SPUT".  Please
visit the online catalog by going to www.gosa.org and click on the GOSA
Store button.

 

Even better would be having digital versions of "Transactions" and Scott's
"Geysers ." books, but those are unlikely.  

 

Gazers could use electronic devices to refer to maps and manuscripts in the
basins and backcountry.  Speaking for myself and perhaps a few of you,
supplementing a sometimes forgetful brain with digital memory would be
great.  And the backpack might actually get lighter, too!
