Sorry, Lynn and everyone.
Usually I am better about times. Long work day, dead tired when I posted.
On Tuesday, May 14, 2013, Beehive's Indicator erupted at the following times, that I noticed on the webcam:
1234 (Beehive followed at 1310, Indicator erupted for 36 minutes)
1858 splashy to about 6-8 inches, >1 min duration
1914 very weak, <1 min duration
1930 very weak, <1 min duration
1946 Slightly stronger, >1 min duration
and another reported eruption on GeyserTimes after I turned off the computer at 2034 ie. without a description of it.
Thank you!
Pat Snyder

For example, the Beehive's Indicator post shows "Tue, 14 May 2013 12:49:30 - 0700" when it is included in the reply message, which is apparently the time the post was sent to the listserv. But when I looked at it in my inbox, the time/date shows as Wed., 15 May 2013 5:06 p.m., which is apparently the time the post was distributed to readers of the listserv.

Since the "today" eruption time for Beehive listed in the post of 1310 is after the 12:49:30 time on the post, additional potential confusion was introduced.
