cbkeller, thank you so much for your answers!
Its rare I read such good answers on the grand scale implications of someone's research.
When you study plate tectonics, watch the Earth Story documentary [1], read Earth System History [2], Five Kingdoms by Margulis [3] or the books of Steven J. Gould [4] you get an overview of the history of planet Earth that geology, paleontology, biology and astronomy sciences pieced together in the last 150 years.
But then you never hear about the new breakthrough research that happens after these publications. But now I have learned about a new mayor piece of the puzzle by these comments of cbkeller [5], thank you very much!
If there is anything I could assist with, like writing complex (simulation) software in just a few thousand lines of code [6] for your research, you can reach me at morphle at ziggo dot nl.
