Different from other discussions, I don't believe the placement under sci being in question. The group should have the issue to spread informations about findings, new results and/or interpretations of those results of paleontological research. It should have the primary issue to exchange informations within the scientific community involved in that topic (including students), the secondary one to answer questions of the interested public. I would appreciate comments about the following questions: - does the request for creation seem justified - would there be enough traffic to make it worth while Any further comments/hints/criticism appreciated as well regards, es
