Shoutout to the guy arguing about the Chicxulub crater at the Denver rock show

He said the impact winter theory is overblown and volcanic eruptions in India did most of the work. The other guy pointed to the global iridium layer as solid proof. Made me rethink how we assign a single cause to big events. What's your take on the main driver for the K-Pg extinction?

That iridium layer evidence really convinced me it was the asteroid.

Wait, the guy at a rock show was arguing about the Chicxulub crater? That's wild lol. @wells.amy has a point about the iridium, but volcanoes definitely added to the mess.
