G is actually sitting somewhere posting times now.
07:31:42
maybe he will get Beehive
07:35:28
I hope. Looks like he didn't get another F&M
07:45:06
lc, that capture of N.Goggles you sent me really came in handy. When it erupted a couple of days aga, I knew exactly what it was. Very cool.
07:46:15
glad to see it erupt again
07:46:44
really wonder if Giantess had anything to do with it.
07:47:22
I am almost certain its eruptions are tied to Giantess.
07:48:10
I was very hopeful that it would erupt again and that we would be able to see it on the cam. Worked out great
07:48:20
seems most things on the hill are tied to Giantess.
07:48:55
it went about 30 min after I left.
07:48:58
I want to be a fly on the wall when Lynn S and T.Scott B have that discussion!
07:49:13
G
07:49:47
yes, I noticed that you had left the room when it erupted. But kc and DaveM got captures, so I knew you would get a chance to see it.
07:50:54
yes, I watched DaveM. for some reason I can't open kc's capture.
07:52:06
I watch kc's an VLC media player. Seems I recall it doesn't work on Windows
07:52:38

Hi BB.

Glad BHI decided to start things before time for bed for you.
12:26:18
yes, me too. I captured all day but haven't watched much
12:26:24
now is a very good time for me :)
12:31:20
just read the log... is FUBAR a regular word? Had to look that up
12:31:33
Long interval since last BH. Over 15.5 hours.
12:32:12
Military term. Check U.S. Army acronyms. :)
12:32:53
A commonly used acronym in US vernacular
12:33:28
found it in the urban dictionary and was wondering if you could use it because of what it stands for
12:34:20
our first internet provider was called SNAFU... I had no idea what that meant until one of my American friends said "Are you kidding me???"
12:34:22
I wasn't sure if the sensors would let it pass here, and was surprised when it posted.
12:34:38
Certainly communicated my feelings about Plume intervals at the time
12:35:06
censors with a 'c', not an 's' can't spell today.

13:37:56
BB, your call on Plume was a good one. called from the basin as 1258
13:38:32
Plume was the only one I really saw... just didn't know if it was the start
13:39:10
Jake posted it to GT right away. Since no one posted OF I finally put in my near end time
13:39:12
you did fine on OF too!
13:39:30
not that I saw much of that
13:39:43
VEC prediction is 1428, so OF start must have been about 1255
13:40:05
I even chec ked the cam for the new prediction but had no idea what to do with it
13:40:40
It is very rare to have OF posted from the basin. I find that curious. I suppose gazers know the VEC will get that one, and we usually will here too.
13:41:14
for an eruption whose duration is 3.5minutes or more, the VEC uses a 93 minute prediction interval.
13:41:35
I thought they were going to change that, but I haven't seen any evidence that they are using different numbers.
13:41:58
I can never remember that... maybe I should write it down
13:42:17
Graham quit (timeout)
