[Geysers] Accurate Description of How Geysers Work

[Jeff Cross]

Here is a link to an accurate description of how geysers work:

http://www.swisseduc.ch/stromboli/perm/yellowstone/modelgeyser-en.html

Note the complete lack of mention of the constriction, which is
almost always cited (in error) as necessary "to hold the pressure in."

The website also has several movies of geysers in eruption.
