It's a good idea, but ... Originally, the royalties went to The Paleontological Society. I hope this means that The Paleontological Society has retained the copyright. A nomenclatural appendix should be added to bring the names up to date, as many of the species are now classified in different genera. Some of the taxonomy hasn't aged well, so a revision would be even better. Perhaps The Paleontological Society could coordinate this. Best wishes, Rosalie F.
