Recipients on this medium are inferred from channel membership, not per-message addressing.

And good choice taking yourself off the paper - I did the same on Charles' paper too because he wouldn't listen tosense either. Some scientists are so full of themselves by now - but this has to be the worst example I have seen.

In context

    Just so my emails make sense, the text that I am commenting on stated that UK govt policy was based on Emma's tweet. At the very least the corresponding authors need to be told this is insulting.
