Many, many species disappeared from the earth then, but the one thing that never disappeared was the drive of evolution. New species arose, and the new species were even more successful in covering the planet than the former ones. Then another great extinction. Then another recovery. On and on. Change after change, sometimes separated by hundreds of millions of years, and sometimes by only tens of millions of years. Only tens of millions of years? Ha! When I stand next to a tree that is four hundred years old, it stretches my imagination to picture that seed germinating so long ago.
