@aadineen Every day is trilobite day!

@grahbudd Oh dear, I was greatly saddened to learn this news. He was one of the most formidable intellects I have ever known, but spiced with humour. His English was so perfect that you could send your papers to him for improvement. Please pass on my sincere sympathy.

Good review of my book Close Encounters of the Fungal Kind in The Spectator. I hope it will be published in the USA as its compass is international.

@AbrehartEco Never seen it!

@EndOfThePier @Lit_Review Thanks so much, Henry!

I am sad to report that Euan Clarkson - who made us understand how trilobites saw the world - has just died. He was one of a kind.

@niles_eldredge @Trilolight Congratulations Niles. My own latest (and probably last) book appears in a week or two. It's about my lifelong fascination with fungi.

@RobGMacfarlane I know of a dozen Nightingales (Roads Crescents Closes) built where the birds themselves have been displaced. I have yet to see a Corncrake Mead.
