Gary Kindel

Taking a hiatus from https://earthscience.stackexchange.com.

This site is NOT as useful or friendly as stackoverflow.com which is too bad. I was an early voter for geology /earthscience forum on Area 51. I've not contributed since May 2019 because of the identification flap. Recently, I've been reflecting my experience here compared to a number of private Facebook geology groups I belong to and almost deleted my profile but decided to take time off until 2020 and then decide.
