[Coral-List] Geologists and deep time

[boc]

As a neontologist, I asked a geologist what he thought of climate change
effects. His reply "Not much"...hmmmm.

Hey, Gene, you old curmudgeon,
I cannot resist this.
Yes, all the scientists who contributed to Reef Reminiscences are
biologists.  The geologists we invited to participate declined.  Do you
remember me asking you to write something?
And yes, geologists on average do seem to have a better understanding of
deep time than do biologists, so I am sorry they did not get represented in
Reef Reminiscences..
