maybe 40 years of wandering in the desert wasn’t so bad with all that ash in the air...
Yup...a bunch of other things were happening also. The plume from Thera only had to be 30,000 feet to be seen in Egypt..."staff by day, torch by night..", that sort of stuff.
BTW, Pinatubo was 26,000 feet high.
A bit of relativity?
Was Thera coincident with the Exodus?
(Or am I just being dense and missing a joke...)
