Doing Civil Engineering at Auckland Uni back in the late80s early 90s we had to do a kind of sociology course. Can't remember what is was called, but over a couple of years we has lectures from all the other parts of Uni and such like with a view to expanding our minds beyond numbers and concrete and steel and dirt and stuff.
One of the things we did was a trip down the hill to the art gallery where they had this exhibition of wax work figures. Each had some trauma associated with it, drug dealers, violence etc etc.
Of course one of the guys, dressed appropriately for an engineering student, ripped jeans, hoodie, mullet, took up position in a corner sprawled as if stoned (which was not beyond the realms of possibility for Glen).
Hooked a decent number of art appreciators...

"previously extinct" = not available in that location. Although formerly extinct might be correct with cloning one day
Well the independent got it right in more common language - "A bird species previously extinct in Europe is back". The definition of extinct is: "no longer in existence". Semantics, but agreed that cloning does change it all. Is a species extinct if it's DNA still exists?

Anyway this sort of stuff blows my mind
Love that stuff too.Muons going faster than the speed of light! WTF? Just when I thought it was an immutable law of physics (actually they do explain a bit further to clarify). Just finished reading a Neil deGrasse Tyson followed by a Brian Cox. Always had a bit of trouble getting my head around space time but the Brian Cox one explains quite well (and why humans have so much trouble grasping the concept). Amazing stuff being discovered and theorised all the time. Making me feel very old that so much has been learnt since I left school. I don't remember much about elementary particles at all!
