		<description><![CDATA[There&#039;s a new project starting with the objective of cataloguing all known species of life in a single, online database.  It&#039;s sort of a biological Wikipedia:<br/><br/>&quot;Comprehensive, collaborative, ever-growing, and personalized, the Encyclopedia of Life is an ecosystem of websites that makes all key information about life on Earth accessible to anyone, anywhere in the world. Our goal is to create a constantly evolving encyclopedia that lives on the Internet, with contributions from scientists and amateurs alike. To transform the science of biology, and inspire a new generation of scientists, by aggregating all known data about every living species. And ultimately, to increase our collective understanding of life on Earth, and safeguard the richest possible spectrum of biodiversity.&quot;<br/><br/>Am I the only one who immediately thinks of Tron&#039;s Master Control Program saying &quot;End of Line&quot;?  It would be appropriate if this served as an archive of life after some horrible apocalyptic event - but let&#039;s not think about that.<br><br>]]></description>
