Hi Jeremy,

Thank you very much for your email....I love the word too!

Palaeo + oology = Palaeooology? Is that right?

I have sent an email to the Oxford English Dictionary for its nomination...

Thank you very much for your suggestion!

palaeooobiology

I like this word.    You should nominate it for the Oxford English 
Dictionary.   But you spelled it with only 2 "o" earlier in the email.   
Which is correct.   I hope it's the 3 "o" version, although a purist would 
insist on a hyphen, I'd guess, between no. 1 and no. 2.
