<DIV> Thanks for the correction! Guess I didn't check
the email before I sent it. I just checked the original (from which I
typed the email) and it should have read 1995 instead of 1955. Guess I'd
better be more accurate or I may lose my job!</DIV>

Bryan (1955) Geysers of Yellowstone, p. 74 mentions 11 bursts in<BR>>an
exceptional eruption in 1983. Is this the eruption Goldberg
recorded?</FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV>

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Well, again showing that I am getting OLD... who would have thought that
any edition of my book was published in 1955! And how remarkable that a 1955
book can contain information about a 1983 eruption.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Let's see. Where was I. Gee, where am i? golly. Oh, yeah... (kidding. I
think.)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>... anyhow, obviously the 1983 11-burst Grand was not that filmed by
Goldberg. I don't recall who saw the '83 eruption -- not me -- but back then
Grand had a lot more bursts than it does now. For the record, here is what I
compiled for June + July + August that year</DIV>
<DIV>Number of Bursts/Number of eruptions</DIV>
<DIV>1/4</DIV>
<DIV>2/34</DIV>
<DIV>3/51</DIV>
<DIV>4/26</DIV>
<DIV>5/3</DIV>
<DIV>6/7</DIV>
<DIV>7/1</DIV>
<DIV>8/0</DIV>
<DIV>9/0</DIV>
<DIV>10/0</DIV>
<DIV>11/1</DIV>
<DIV>Season average = 3.18 bursts</DIV>
