Cenozoic

Selected Cenozoic taxa of Washington

gollark: I can't actually see an RSS feed for EG changes, so that may actually not be possible.
gollark: Someone else wanted the levelling bot thing. I mentioned my own jokingly, and am nonjokingly suggesting the RSS thing.
gollark: It is.
gollark: In terms of actual utility, it might be nice to have one of those RSS bots post new changes to the Encyclopaedia Galactica in a channel here, or forum topics or something.
gollark: I don't think they're very good, but they seem popular, possibly because it's an easy feature so lots of bots with useful capabilities have it and nobody bothers to disable that.
