I never was a fan of guesswork entries, which easily cause misinterpretations. (Gotta admit, too, that I sometimes long for the days before there were even CB radios!) I think the biggest problem with the proposal for something like "0000A" and the term "assumed" is that it is possible that such an eruption in fact did NOT take place. Such an entry, looking like a "real" time would be incorrect and misleading. If there is to be something, then I'd prefer an entry more akin to Dan's "9999" along with an explanation that we don't really know for absolute certain that there was an eruption, only that we pretty much, more or less think there was one. You can move this comment into the survey if you wish. Scott Bryan -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
