Dear Carole L. Crumley (author of Historical Ecology, required article for my Enviroment and Culture course at Mcgill),
Why do you use so many ridiculous words?

centrifugal?
multitemporal?
periodcity?
diachronic?
anthropogenic?
parochial?
historicity?

are these scholarly-smollerly works really necessary or are you just trying to make your writting unaccessible to undergradlings like myself?
Sincerely,
Disgruntled anthropology student
