This is how this is going to work. I am going to try to have a post for each talk. IDK how well the audio will be on the webcast. I could miss a presentation. I may not too. I also have a three year old I am trying to put down for a nap. I am going to include their information as well as any running commentary that I might have. When this is done, I'll link all the above presentations listed to the individual posts.
The first three presentations are probably the most interesting on a personal level to me. Then again, you all ought to expect that since I've a fascination with extinction events. The Eocene had a moderate extinction while the Ordovician and PT were, well, huge. For different reasons.
That said, here we go!
