01:41:56 <Af> Ahhh weekend at last
01:43:19 <Af> later I guess
01:56:11 <kcmule> vet trip did not take long
01:56:48 <kcmule> so im available this morning
02:01:02 <Jake> great! but will anything erupt? . . . .
02:01:27 <Graham> can always hope for Lion
02:01:44 <Jake> it's "due"
02:02:44 <Graham> not good wind for watching for NG
02:04:24 <Jake> is it RAINING at OF?
02:05:08 <Jake> I guess it's snow, but it looked like little splashes on the sidewalk
02:12:05 <kcmule> http://tinyurl.com/BH0734-02182012
02:27:46 <Jake> was that NG?
02:28:50 <Jake> cam op zoomed in quickly...OF steam mostly in the way, but something was pretty steamy back there for a few seconds
02:30:12 <kcmule> looked at the cap quickly, only saw steam from lion
02:30:51 <Jake> really? this was to the right of Lion
02:31:11 <Jake> or am I going crazy?
02:32:20 <Jake> I even thought it might have been to the right of NG
02:33:04 <kcmule> http://tinyurl.com/7l5jbhc
02:33:23 <kcmule> this is 0907 til just after u posted
02:33:54 <Jake> thanks! I can already feel my ego getting crushed as I watch the video download...:)

04:37:30 <Af> Hello
04:38:26 <Graham> hi AF
04:39:15 <Af> morning graham
04:45:36 <Graham> NG 1145
04:45:47 <Af> still going
04:46:14 <lc> sure happy to see that.
04:46:18 <Af> hi lc
04:46:26 <lc> hi af
04:46:58 <Graham> 1d 2h between reports
04:47:04 <lc> maybe that will jumpstart Lion
04:47:15 <Graham> or keep it dormant
04:47:29 <lc> don say that. G
04:47:38 <lc> don't
04:47:48 <Graham> if we get NG majors for a while I would be happy
04:48:01 <Graham> Lioness Big Cub...
04:48:03 <Af> I had a dream last night in UGB where Lion did come back on.
04:48:08 <kcmule> aurum too 11:45ie
04:48:34 <Graham> you are just making that up kc :)
04:49:24 <kcmule> we'll have to go to the replay booth
04:49:37 <Graham> hehe
04:49:57 <Graham> Plume 1149
04:50:44 <Af> that's a lot of GH stuff in short notice!
04:51:27 <lc> seems to happen like that.
04:57:08 <Af> Ok, guys I ma creating a GOSA -shirt utilizing cafe press's t-shirt creator and I need some creative text.
04:57:13 <Graham> replay is taking a long time, score still not posted on GT
04:57:28 <Af> any ideas?
04:57:47 <Graham> in competition with the real GOSA shirts?
04:58:07 <Af> They have real shirts?
04:58:23 <Graham> plain with the GOSA logo
04:58:34 <Af> not in competiton but for me nyself and I with no one else.
04:59:45 <Af> Graham these http://www.onlinecatalogsystem.net/catalog/gosa00/LadyShirt.htm
05:00:43 <Graham> they used to have t-shirts too but yes, those are the shirts

05:03:41 <Graham> player not working here ... i assume from the name you have a result tho
05:05:03 <kcmule> yes only 12s apart
05:05:48 <Graham> k, good catch then as I was watching the other steam
05:05:49 <Af> I think you need to use windows media player or quicktime kc
05:06:45 <kcmule> i could but it would be lossy in the conversion process. native format is flv, flash video
05:07:15 <Af> I ma getting windows movie maker
05:07:30 <lc> that was a GOOD catch kc
05:07:55 <kcmule> thx lc
05:08:14 <Af> kc I dilike flash sometimes becuase it can be really finicky
05:08:58 <kcmule> it used to be windows media, but that had its own set of problems
05:10:08 <kcmule> flash is more cross-platform friendly, so macs and iphones and even linux users can view
05:17:45 <Af> sawmill continues...

05:32:20 <Af> OF 1232
05:36:16 <Af> was that long? looked like it
05:37:06 <Graham> not sure. waiting to see VEC updated time
05:37:27 <Af> It looked barealy long
05:38:17 <Graham> they have it as a long

06:09:32 <Graham> Dep 1308ie
06:10:15 <Kevin L> Must have been watching the UNLV game too.
06:10:44 <Graham> goodgame?
06:10:58 <Kevin L> For New Mexico it was.
06:11:47 <Kevin L> About an hour and a half until grown men start crashing expensive cars, so at least I will have something to make me happy.
06:16:50 <Graham> sawmill is off
06:24:26 <ynpvisitor35> Would it be possible to watch the Lion group a little more often. I like the bison and the far away steam at the end of the valley, but I would really appreciate seeing the Lion group, too.
06:25:47 <Graham> its had a fair amount of cam time recently but can be watched now and then
06:26:18 <Graham> unlikely anything will erupt there, lil cub just finished

06:57:58 <Graham> 1356 on static
06:58:54 <ynpvisitor96> Little cub is actice again
07:11:24 <ynpvisitor96> Will we be seeing a lot more of the wildlife on the camera now that Canon has requested it? A friend just told me about the letter.
07:13:32 <Graham> news to me
07:19:58 <Graham> Sawmill 1419ie
07:21:21 <Kevin L> I thought we always showed the wildlife when it showed up. What are they going to do, import some?
07:24:40 <Graham> now i can combine the wildlife and Lion group requests
07:25:29 <Kevin L> If we show Lion, does that count as wildlife?
07:26:04 <lc> I like that
07:27:57 <lc> have you checked out the link Paul S. sent to the listserv a few days ago?
07:28:07 <Graham> lil cub, big cub, lioness, plumes
07:29:10 <Graham> marmot cave
08:19:33 <Graham> at least theres one person on geyser hill
08:27:53 <Graham> OF 1527
08:30:48 <ynpvisitor49> Was that Aurum just before OF?
08:31:14 <Graham> dunno
08:31:45 <ynpvisitor49> certainly looked like it.
08:32:08 <Graham> maybe kc can check the replay later
08:45:26 <ynpvisitor37> I'm experiencing a complete NPS blackout. 15:44 in progress.
08:45:59 <Graham> did we lose the stream?
08:46:28 <ynpvisitor37> I can't get stream, still camera, or my browser to admit that www.nps.gov exists.
08:46:57 <Graham> ah, well thats your problem ... nps.gov exists
08:47:36 <ynpvisitor37> Thanks. Will troubleshoot some more.
08:47:49 <Graham> live3 straeming is working
08:48:01 <Graham> i usually can't get the main one live4 to work
08:49:06 <ynpvisitor37> That was fast. I did nothing and everything was working again.
08:49:26 <Graham> glad i was able to fix it for you
08:54:06 <Graham> i need to head out, kc is going to take over but its yours Kevin if you are done enjoying bent metal
08:54:16 <Graham> bye, may stop in later.
08:55:27 <ynpvisitor37> Bye.

09:06:12 <ynpvisitor37> Good thing we can still see that far down-basin.
09:06:45 <kcmule> focus just barely hanging in there
09:29:50 <kcmule> Depression 16:29ie
09:30:19 <kcmule> and one well steamed bison
09:31:34 <ynpvisitor37> Best seats in the house.
09:55:17 <Kevin L> Looks yucky. Nice way to start a season. Overtime finish and half of them ran out of gas about 500 yards short of the finish line.
09:55:52 <ynpvisitor37> Did they get out and push?
09:56:56 <Kevin L> They coasted across the finish line, but well short of where they would have been, And about half of them wadded up cars after the finish line.
09:56:57 <kcmule> OF 16:56
10:00:11 <kcmule> NG 16:59
10:01:16 <ynpvisitor61> Very Nice, looked like a tall minor
10:10:44 <ynpvisitor43> ..
10:10:58 <kcmule> Plume 17:10
10:11:11 <ynpvisitor61> plume?
10:11:43 <ynpvisitor61> ah, didn't have the page scrolled down far enough
10:11:43 <kcmule> yep
10:11:52 <kcmule> : )
10:12:33 <ynpvisitor61> The wind is really howling there.
10:13:38 <ynpvisitor61> I wonder if the "ack of a lion" is related to a small earthquake that shook something loose?
10:15:07 <ynpvisitor61> I thought when I saw all that water from BH an hour ago, that there was going to be a very very short inteval, but no.
10:16:41 <kcmule> there was that offshore eq not long ago. not sure how it lines up, or if it is close to big enough to affect ynp
10:17:32 <ynpvisitor61> How long ago was the last Lion, it seems like 5 days??
10:17:58 <kcmule> gt: 6days 5m
10:18:37 <ynpvisitor37> I remember older editions of "The Geysers of Yellowstone" said that Lion was dormant for a year after the Borah Peak earthquake. But we haven't had anything like Borah Peak recently.
10:20:47 <ynpvisitor61> I was pulling my notes, but I didn't see anything. It's been a while at ~3 day for intervalss.
10:21:06 <ynpvisitor61> can't type either.
10:21:23 <kcmule> vec says we are in a daisy window
10:24:10 <ynpvisitor61> Borah Peak earthquake was a 9 and on 28 Oct 1883 just in case folks wondered
10:25:13 <kcmule> maybe buffalo bill felt that one
10:25:50 <ynpvisitor61> I had to look it up....I remember some kids died in Challis
10:28:39 <ynpvisitor37> To correct a typo, The earthquake was 1983.
10:29:09 <kcmule> sorry to make fun of it : )
10:29:47 <ynpvisitor61> Yes, you are right! Gotta admit to being that far off. I am reading records for the 1880s at the moment...so it's automatic.
10:30:15 <ynpvisitor37> In any case, Lion chugged along for 25 years once it reactivated, then changed its pattern for no good reason a couple of years ago. And may have done it again this week.
10:32:04 <lc> the change 2 years ago was good.
10:32:41 <ynpvisitor61> Because it became more frequent?
10:33:04 <lc> had longer series
10:33:45 <ynpvisitor61> That, too
10:33:50 <lc> I should say more eruptions in a series
10:34:04 <ynpvisitor43> .
10:34:54 <ynpvisitor61> It seemed it stopped being 3 daty intervals, also, but I'm not sure about when that was....
10:36:24 <lc> I think Lion and Depression changed at the same time.
10:37:14 <ynpvisitor61> I know I started being able to catch Depression more often in the last few years, but then maybe I was on GH more often
10:37:25 <ynpvisitor43> .
10:37:59 <ynpvisitor37> Yes, Depression dropped down to 3-hour intervals the same week that Lion switched to long series.
10:38:43 <lc> before that Depression intervals could be12-16 hrs.
10:39:50 <Inez Austin> I wonder if there was a corresponding change in BH
10:40:19 <lc> I don't think so.
10:59:09 <kcmule> Daisy 17:58
11:04:17 <lc> good night all
