I intentionally kept my personal opinion off that thread.

You started the thread and linked it to a recent earthquake map of the park. The title of the thread - the title you made was

Yellowstone might go on first stage alert soon.

At this post

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2443122/posts?page=246#246

I stated that the USGS interpretation of the swarm was common movement along preexisting faults and not associated with the movement of magma. I made those comments in association with post 47 to some one else. You got snotty and didn't like my observation but apologized. However, by post 269 you were rejecting the expert opinion and interpretation of the USGS volcanologists. You then went on to "your" opinion that the seismograph was registering 'harmonic tremors' signifying movement of magma - counter to the USGS experts. . . . .

Need I go on? You interjected your personal opinions starting with the title and continuing through the misrepresentation of seismic data.

Why do you want to continue to belabor the point? Have a nice day.

yes I remember that part of the conversation that is when winoneforthegipper pointed out some harmonic motion at the time.

A few days latter there was a great deal more harmonic motions.
Yes personally got a few harmonic motions mixed up with a old faithful but as i said I am an amateur.

I remember explaining the stages someplace in that thread. That wasn’t my terminology.

If staging issue is really what you are angry about then don’t look at me for making that stupid color coding system. Stage yellow is first stage second stage is orange and so on.
