Very late reply, Paul, hope you don't mind:

I'd love to contribute here a lot more - I've been planning to do so for a while now - but I tend to write very long-winded posts (see above, again) which maybe doesn't work on social media, and I'm also not one-tenth the geologist Steve Ruff is. If you think my somewhat inexpert posts are OK, though, I'm happy to oblige when I actually manage to find the time.

I personally don't care about long winded posts, I think you'll find those that are seeking a deeper understanding will not care either. There will always be those who will want a TLDR post, but you can leave that to others to condense :)

Look forward to your posts (whenever you have time) :)
