Final paper from my PhD now published - The climatic resilience of the Sasanian Empire. We compiled and critiqued climate-society evidence in the Sasanian Empire, finding a lack of impacts from the major 6th c. drought that was detrimental elsewhere.

@RowlandHowland I was once non-consensually included (with THOUSANDS of others) in an email "debate" because someone dare mention Taiwan in a University email. I would be surprised if none of the participants were fired... That's the one time I appreciated an aggressive remove from thread mail😂

"Reply all" should require one more click to execute.

"Are you sure you want to respond to all email addresses in the previous message?"

I've been caught out by it before and frequently receive emails I shouldn't
