Coincidentally, this week GOSA Store and Press received an anonymous letter postmarked in Salt Lake City that said much the opposite.  Since I did not want to edit or retype it in its entirety, I attached it as a .jpg image. While I (and apparently Bruce) disagree with many aspects of this view, I thought I'd pass it along for you to judge and comment upon.

My own time in the basins has been unfortunately brief over the years, and the help and knowledge that all of you folks imparted was a great help to my family and me during our most recent visit. I tend to be quite shy myself, and having folks who are open and friendly also makes for a comforting experience. I still haven't managed to see a Giant, but thanks to the help of others I was able to experience Penta Geyser this time around, and one generous fellow gave my son and I a nice crash course in what constitutes a Giant Hot Period...as I read the reports that come in, I will now be able to picture what is actually happening in the moments before Giant plays. Another gave us some concept about the theoretical relationship between Little Squirt and Beehive's behavior. All great stuff. Finally, thanks to the announcements over the radio about times and events, the process of hotfooting it all over the basin was much more rewarding than in the past when we were radio-silent. I am reluctant to mention any names lest I get them wrong or leave someone out, but those of you who recognize my name, please be aware that the time you spent talking and explaining was a great help to us.
