Proposal:New Geologic Era



Greetings,
  I would like to make a proposal that we have entered a New Geologic
Era.
After considering the impact that computers and information technology
have had on the world I think it is time for a change.In the past we
looked at fossils to see what changes took place over time. Now change
and evoloution are going on at an ever increasing rate. The internet and
intranets have fundamentally changed the world and affect all species
including man either directly or peripherally.
Even the movie technology has brought dinosaurs into electronic
reallity.
Therefore, I propose that the Cenozoic Era is over.We are now in the
Cyberzoic Era.The exact time of the tranition to be worked out by
professionals who are much more qualified then me to determine its
actual beginning. The first period might be named Spelbergian. This new
era would reflect the evolution of humans into cyberspace. A new field
of electronic paleontology would be created to gather fossil evidence
from this new era.

I submit this proposal for your review.

Long live the Cyberzoic!!

                                                Sincerely,
                                        Bob Boscarelli
