Periods not eras
Hi Digthepast I think quite a bit of this is yours - I've discovered all sorts of wonderful and weird stuff on a variety of palaeo-beasties whilst browsing around doing cleaning up on eras and periods - thanks! I have noticed though that someone - is it you? - has been employing the term 'era' for what are geological 'periods'. To cut down on the number of edits I'm making, changing 'era' to 'period', could I persuade you to restrict the term 'era' just to the three accepted eras of the Phanerozoic; the Paleozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic, and not to the periods within them such as the Devonian etc?
