A matter of clarification--<BR>
<BR>
I understand that wind direction can impact the relative time for the electronic monitors; I understand that sometimes the webcam blog times really should be "ie" instead of starts. I also know that, at least in the past, the time stamp on the static cam may not be accurate (for awhile even the year was wrong!). I know there may be a lag between when the image is sent out and when a person sees it on their personal computer. I have taken these factors into account. I am not quiblling over a minute here or a minute there or even whether the webcam blog time should have been "ie"; I'm talking many minutes, and in some cases hours. When I said the webcam times were not supported by electronic times, I meant that the activity identified as an eruption was not an eruption.<BR>
<BR>
For example, when I said the two Riverside eruptions didn't happen, one steam cloud identified as Riverside was 2 hours 11 minutes after the start of the preceding eruption of Riverside; the other one was 2 hours 17 minutes after the start of the preceding eruption of Riverside. The two steam clouds reported as eruptions of Aurum--one was 1 hour 9 minutes after the electronic time; the other was 20 minutes after the electronic time.<BR>
<BR>
Again, thanks to the people who have taken the time to do the data mining--particulary Rich and Graham. My comments are in no way intended to be criticisms of them. They are saving us time by doing the compilation for us and I appreciate their efforts.<BR>
