<div>Hello All,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Hmmm, I always heard it called Dog Bone and the hole farther out was Thumper (for its noise). I don't know if they are just part of Spasmotic. They usually git full and Dog Bone overflows during a Tardy cycle when Penta is possible. So I thought of them as part of Penta's system and Spasmottic but they appear to be more active when a Penta eruption is possible. As for if its a geyser, I'm sorta liberial on this issue, it puts water in the air, its a geyser to me.</div>

It is between Thumping Hole and the boardwalk. I never thought of it as being a vent of Spasmodic Geyser. It usually is high and overflowing in a Tardy cycle in which we might get an eruption of Penta.<br>

<br>This summer, I found out that some people call this vent "Hot Dog." It is right next to the boardwalk, on the same side as Spasmodic and opposite Penta. It is shaped roughly like a bootprint. It seems to be most active when Penta is about to start an eruption.<br>
<br>The origin of the name is interesting: A careless visitor was illegally walking a dog on the boardwalk. When the animal saw the bubbling vent, it jumped down to investigate and burnt its paw. The animal's yelps attracted the comment from one gazer: "That's what I call a hot dog."<br>
