Silurian MORBs of Ireland was once my jam :) Although the only thing I remember now is Niobium depletion and a few thin sections of rock that could be accurately described as really fine green mush. Ill still check out your link though. Active volcano was always too young for me. Silurian MORBs of Ireland was once my jam :)

Social anxiety explosion. Worked for Comcast for a decade and a half. Then let go, or rather "voluntarily" retired. Joined a small cable-related company a year ago, and to be honest, it's the best career move I ever made. A boss that actually appreciates what I do and even listens to me. This is shocking. Been on reddit, twitter, bluesky and a host of other places, but this place here was always home. Kept thinking I should pop in, but then got distracted by something shiny. Or something leaky. Or something that needed fixing. I sincerely regret my absence. Hope y'all are well. I made the mistake of scrolling back through community to see who was still here, and found some who are no longer with us in body and in spirit. May their memories be of a blessing. Been busy :)
