Today, I am basically living on the very specific combination of three rocks in Germany. It's nice here. We got marine reptiles and lots of ammonoids here.

Oh and I used to live for most of my life on full of coal. Today, I would say it's mostly full of pretty deep holes full with water and underneath still full of coal, but you know globalization and things happened so coal import from where it's also full of coal is the shit.

9) The Greek Erudition of Sir Charles Lyell, 1st Baronet, FSR:
-Eocene (Dawn of Newness)
-Miocene (Less Newness)
-Pliocene (More Newness)
-Pleistocene (Most Newness)
-Recent

10) Filling in the ~10 million years Sir Lyell missed between Eocene and Miocene:
-Oligocene (Few Newness)
