Hello, folks.  Will I do?  I'm not a full-fledged paleontologist yet,
but I am a Paleontology major (Junior) in the Earth and Planetary Sciences
Department at the Johns Hopkins University.  I'd love to talk about
my field sometime.  So far, all I've been able to use my studies for is
to debunk Ted Holdenisms.  I'd like to see net.origins turn into a discussion
of life history (gee, what a radical idea).

Unfortunatly, I'm going home for the summer as of May 17th.  I'll be back
in September, though.  Hope to get in some good discussions then.
