Blurry vision and aging: How older eyes cope

Welcome to Scleritome Week: The Little Nets
I'm still pretty excited about the articulated machaeridian I wrote about last week. So excited, in fact, that to commemorate that significant discovery I'm declaring this week to be Scleritome Week here at Catalogue of Organisms. Each day this week I'll introduce you to a new Palaeozoic fossil animal of a kind no longer with us today.

One needs only to do a Web search for "Stone" and "Bush" to find plenty of the director's critical comments about the Bush administration's invasion of Iraq.
