Metazoica back-up

#1. I actually began working on Metazoic mammal prototypes in 1980, but I was too young to make them scientifically accurate. The first mammals I worked on were the therapeds and deinognathids, which laid dormant in my head until I was almost 20 years old. At which time, I brought them back to life and added more accuracy scientifically to them. #2. There were originally more family groups for Metazoica, about a dozen of which never actually made it into today's checklist. When I first started to create the mammals of the future, I went wild with ideas. Sometimes too wild. When I first created the original checklist in 1994, there were family groups on there that you will not find in the checklist of today. They were groups that I just could not find an empty niche in the Metazoic for. So, I threw them away. #3. The odd names you see given as common names of the mammals of the Metazoic were thought up one rainy day by me and my sis in 1995. I got tired of simply calling all th...

Hello again everyone! I am done transferring all the pages. Now, I am working on the Meet The Mammals section. That section is going to take the longest to complete. You all will notice I don't have the pull-down menus on those pages anymore. Now, I just list the mammals' names. I will soon be working on a book that will have more extensive info about the animals' lives, but the new checklist is up and running. I adjusted the setting so it can be viewed by anyone. Last night, I realized someone tried to view it and couldn't without my permission. I didn't want that!! It should be available to everyone!! It's growing and I am getting closer and closer to my goal of 5000 mammals listed. After that, I want to work towards getting a goal of 10,000 mammals listed for the Metazoic. As long as it took me to reach the goal I am at now, to reach a goal of 10,000 mammals is going to take downright forever!! But I think it can be done. Well, bear with me in the Meet the...

I am realizing surely that the old site is just too much now to keep. But I am making a compromise. I am going to turn this blog into the new Metazoic website. This blog will contain everything the website does, with a few improvements made. In this blog, I will be keeping the comments open on all pages, so you can have a chance to comment on each page. I wanted to add that feature to the regular site, but unfortunately Yahoo does not allow that. I won't be adding my guestbook here for that reason. Now, if you want to comment, you can do it directly on the page. Even anonymous comments are welcome. This is a forum of free speech, so please feel free to speak your mind. I even welcome criticism. The only posts that will not be welcome will be those with too much profanity. No F-bombs please!! There is no reason to do that!! Feel free to love, hate, show indifference or whatever to the animals displayed on this site and even to me if you want, but there is no good reason to cuss one...
