<div dir="ltr">Thanks for doing this; there were a number of thought-provoking questions that I hope you'll eventually publish statistics on. One thing that I'd suggest changing, if you still can for people who haven't answered yet: there is a question asking whether we have "<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'trebuchet MS',Arial;font-size:12.8000001907349px;font-weight:bold">visited any other thermal areas outside of YNP". </span><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:12.8000001907349px"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Any chance of redoing that one so that it asks not only whether, but which one(s)? I think it would be very interesting, and possibly also a resource for gazers traveling abroad, to know whether we have among us experiences with specific geyser fields elsewhere. Certainly, if I'd known that there were others among us who had been to the El Tatio field in Chile before my wife and I went there last spring, I'd have tried to make some contacts that might have improved our own experiences there -- although I will say that we had a grand time just as it was, as I reported in a Sput last year.</font></span><div><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:12.8000001907349px"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:12.8000001907349px"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Speaking of the Sput, on a different, less fun topic: I recently became aware of a weird, unexplained glitch in the data base of Sput subscribers, which I maintain as the "shopkeeper" for the (currently inactive but hopefully soon to be revived) GOSA store. It appears that some Sput subscribers were mysteriously left off the list for the February edition of the Sput who should have been on it -- myself(!) among them. We think this is fixed now, but if you think your subscription status was such that you should have got the February Sput but didn't, please drop me a line at <a href="mailto:BillGOSAstore@gmail.com">BillGOSAstore@gmail.com</a> and I'll look into it. Also, if you're a serious Excel expert, I'd also appreciate a contact, in the hope that we can figure out what happened and keep it from happening again.</font></span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:12.8000001907349px"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:12.8000001907349px"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">-- Bill Johnson</font></span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:12.8000001907349px"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><a href="mailto:BillGOSAstore@gmail.com">BillGOSAstore@gmail.com</a> for GOSA stuff (soon to be replaced by a GOSA.org address), <a href="mailto:canbelto@gmail.com">canbelto@gmail.com</a> for everything else</font></span></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Apr 11, 2015 at 8:18 PM, Mara Reed <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:mara.reed@me.com" target="_blank">mara.reed@me.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div style="word-wrap:break-word">Hello all,<div><br></div><div>If you have ever considered yourself a geyser gazer, I would appreciate it if you could fill out the survey found at this link:</div><div><font color="#000000" style="text-decoration:none;font-family:helvetica,arial,'lucida grande',sans-serif;line-height:15px;white-space:pre-wrap"><a href="https://www.esurveycreator.com/s/e207cae" target="_blank">https://www.esurveycreator.com/s/e207cae</a></font></div><div><br></div><div>The purpose is to gather some information that can characterize our community, and I hope to get as many responses as possible.

If you know any gazers who are not connected through the listserv or Facebook and could pass this on to them, that would be fantastic. I hope to gather and analyze the results for a future Sput article that focuses on our community and gazer involvement in the park.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks much,</div><div>Mara Reed</div></div><br>_______________________________________________<br>
