Burgess Sale vs. Shale

Every time I see this ad I clipped out twenty years ago, I think of Stephen Jay Gould and the Burgess Shale.  I sent it to him when I was a grad. student and would see this ad in the SF Chronicle for Burgess Honda.

I am an evolutionary biologist and a Professor at U. C. Davis. (see my lab site here). My research focuses on the origin of novelty (how new processes and functions originate). To study this I focus on sequencing and analyzing genomes of organisms, especially microbes and using phylogenomic analysis
