Was kind of a do-nothing day today. High point was watching a show on the project to clone the Tasmanian Tiger, a native, marsupial carnivore brought to intentional extinction by humans who were trying to recreate the flora and fauna of Europe at the time. I remember reading about that animal when I was a kid in grammar school. The last one died in 1936 in a zoo in Europe. I had a huge interest as a child in the recently extinct.
