I felt crushed.
Absolutely crushed.
Because, you know, it looked like a dynamite thing and leeches I know don't have a fossil record.
I'm not a leech scientist myself, but I knew what a huge discovery that would be.
But no, they were pretty upfront about that, which is what you want in a scientific colleague.
So that's great.
I feel like vindicated sounds too competitive.
I feel really scientifically satisfied that there was... Is that too professional?
You're so Canadian.
Well, yeah, I know.
Danielle's Canadian too, so she's giving me grief.
If you think about the history of life, basically, like a movie that's going through, basically the fossil record, we're not getting a complete picture.
So imagine watching that movie, but you're squinting the entire time.
But once in a while, you get to open your eyes and see the whole picture.
And then you go back to squinting.
And so this site...
in Wisconsin called Waukesha, is one of these sites of exceptional preservation where when watching the movie that's the whole tape of life, you get to open your eyes for a very brief moment and get the totality of the picture, which includes all the soft tissues, things like leeches and stuff.
Yeah, anytime.
It's always fun.
