I'm on the net way more I should be, and never heard of them. Sooooo how do they expect viral amount of attention?
Tho now I know of 'em and have MY OPINIONS :D

Same and I like to read about paleontology so I’m kind of surprised how I have never heard of this. They must have skimped on marketing.

We're probably seeing the marketing plan right now.

I mean I don’t have a spare $500k lying around (checks under couch cushions too) so it’s not targeted to me lol. I’m content seeing dinosaur skeletons at museums for my paleontological needs.
