Fall of Civilizations should be Changes of Civilizations – video comment

8. The Sumerians – Fall of the First Cities https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2lJUOv0hLA I would call it “Changes in Civilizations” and give a global context. Heard and saw many things I will try to remember. I especially appreciate the narrative on global climate change and sea level rise as a historical force. It made me wonder if the

Comment on The 49 dollar, 500 WattHour eBike Battery video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FwA_s9Ovxc You talk about motivations for watching and DIY at about minute 14.
