I went searching for the air date of BBC's program "Supervolcano" which was discussed earlier. It had aired on BBC Two which I do not get through Dish Network. I just heard back from BBC and it will air on the Discovery Channel in April. They do not have a set date as yet.

It is mislabeled as "Pearl Geyser" in the index and seems also to be mislabeled on the original plate. http://gallery.unl.edu/picinfo/7091.html Here is an old photograph of Union Geyser. Note the heavy beading on the central cone, the wet formation, and the stick jammed into the smallest cone. Damn vandals were at it already in the 1870's. http://gallery.unl.edu/picinfo/7105.html And two of Rustic Geyser. Note the appearance of the crater of "Composite Geyser" in the background of the second photograph; the crater looks partly empty. http://gallery.unl.edu/picinfo/7099.html http://gallery.unl.edu/picinfo/7100.html I have had a bit of fun looking things up on this site. There are quite a few other geyser photographs, including one of Vent Geyser (?) mislabeled as Sawmill. The nice thing is that they have a lot of photographs here that don't usually make it into the standard Yellowstone history texts.

However we thought we should say something about the BBC2 programme. There was indeed a programme about "Supervolcanoes". But it was aired in February 2000 and is definitely not the same programme that they were filming in Yellowstone recently. The BBC were going to show a docudrama about the volcano in Yellowstone and there were due to be two accompanying programmes on BBC. But they have postponed the showing of these programmes fo llowing the Tsunami disaster on 26th December 2004. They did indicate that the programmes would be shown but did not give a date. I have obviously no idea what will be aired on the Discovery Channel in April but if there is only one programme being shown it may be the older one.

I don't have my satellite hooked up anymore, so I don't look at the schedule. If I kind of have an idea of when to start looking for it, I can invade my friends' house when it comes on! I'm in Casper, BTW. Thanks!
