Thank you for reminding me to add "intimidating stringed instrument" to my profile. Now all I need is "intimidating dance shoes with metal on the bottom"...

From memory... we modelled chlorite stabilized in peridotite+H2O at conditions consistent with Pawley 2003 (Chlorite stability in mantle peridotite: the reaction clinochlore + enstatite = forsterite + pyrope + H2O) and the Grove et al. 2006 paper, also cited here: doi.org/10.1016/j.ep...

Made me double check the calendar to make sure I hadn't missed UK Mother's Day (US' is in May)

Part of the reason that plans to make alphaMELTS (and therefore PetThermoTools) easier to install were delayed was absorbing a lot of the support work for other versions of MELTS, such as the old GUI, easyMelts, etc. during the Covid lockdowns.

All the feels

First time here too. We got the alert just after we felt it, but still good to know the system works.
