[Rhodes22-list] Baywater Temp Graphic

[Chris Geankoplis]

Jim,
      Interesting data.  What caused the 4 degree (C) spike in temp?  Do you
guys send out "Ninja Turtle" patrols?
        Chris G.

P.S. As a scienfe teacher is is a real chore to try and convince the kids to
go metric instead of "caveman units".
