The Democrats on the Judiciary Committee are looking at the next evolutionary stage and it’s not pretty.

About 250 million years ago, the Permian extinction wiped out almost all creatures on the land and in the sea, ending one of the most prolific bursts of life on the planet and was thought to have been caused by a combination of glaciations, the formation of a super-continent and an enormous outpouring of lava from the Siberian traps.

Yes, thanks for posting... now I understand what's going on... here in Sweden its not making the European news and every political cartoon I've seen so far hinted that something big (and ugly) was going on. Now I know what I'm looking for...

;D

Good article. The only thing he gets wrong is that the dino tracks in Gill aren't the only ones. There is a much better (and larger) set along the Connecticut river just south of the Holyoke range (the only east-west mountain range in the lower 48). I think the tracks are in Holyoke, but they might be in Chicopee.
