Dear Nephilimfree: you are wrong about water
Please would someone show this to Nephilimfree for me!
Sorry this video is kind of boring for most people.
It had not been my intention to get into a heated 'chat' with Nephilimfree, but I hadn't quite realised just how obnoxious and rude then man can be. This was an oversight on my part. I also acknowledge
the pointlessness of attempting to communicate with the man. However, I thought it was worth me having a go seeing as I do know my stuff about this topic.
Just to clarify, when I said this was my subject area I was referring to the transfer of hydrous agents from the subducting oceanic lithosphere to the overlying mantle in general, not specifically sediment melting experiments
...
I'll produce a more 'user friendly' video at some
point.
Cheers. References:
