Dinosaur In A Haystack: Reflections In Natural History

Dinosaur In A Haystack: Reflections In Natural History | Stephen Jay Gould

A little something for everyone
2 years ago

This is not my favourite Gould book, but it does contain some of his most relevant essays. In particular, he tells the story of the finding of fossils that reveal creatures that are transition between land dwelling mammals and whales.

Review: Moeraes Fate -- Debut EP

2 years ago

On New Years Eve 2009/2010 I happened to tune my TV in to the celebrations from Niagara Falls. The two headlining bands, Styx and Glass Tiger, were there, resting on their laurels, playing their old favourite pop tunes to pump up the crowd. But another band was there too. They had won a spot on the stage a few weeks prior. From the first note to the last beat I was blown away. Trouble is, I had no idea who they were! I had missed their introduction! As soon as their set was over I abandoned … view post

    Thanks for your reply. If you don't hear back regarding the report, let me know!

    Thanks for the tip, I'll read more. I know what you mean- I guess it is unusual, but Spirit of Radio & Tom Sawyer among others have always been at the top of my all-time faves. Plus, I used to live in Mississauga where he lives, and I met his wife several times-Nancy, I think her name is. In school, I worked summer jobs at a garden nursery where she would frequently come in to place orders. So, there's a bit of hometown fan loyalty that would explain it all. Thanks again.
