Just like the inveterate bargain-hunter, the lifetime of the area of interest instructional blogger is all concerning the chase. We’re repeatedly trying to find the following giant quarry: in our case, the difficult to understand connection ready to be published through tangential philosophical research. To the blog-thusiast, not anything compares to the just about cocaine-like prime that hours of study on Web Archive is sure to supply. Like, do you know that William James mentions Lyellian geology in his ebook, Pragmatism? What the heck is that about?!??

You’re the indispensable connective tissue of the philosophy-slash-paleontology blogosphere (or “phil-paleontologophere,” should you choose).
Additionally, let me give a heartfelt “thank you” to Yoshinari Yoshida for making me an image like the opposite Extinct other folks have! I guess no person visiting a boutique paleontology weblog will want the funny story defined to them, however should you’re right here by chance and dissatisfied and at a loss for words, the image displays me maintaining a bouquet of crinoids (colloquially referred to as sea lillies).
Ok. Listed below are the ones hyperlinks I discussed. First you’ll in finding the “Featured Essays,” then the more moderen entries in my “Problematica” collection, and in the end a couple of mini “information” essays. All essays are indexed so as of look, starting with the earliest.
