Idea for a museum?

[Rev. Rye]

Wouldn't it be interesting if there was a museum in which people could walk trough all geological periods of Earth history? Like maybe every room is one period filled with models (life sized?) of animals and plants that lived in that period. They start from pre-cambrian, then cambrian, oh I just walked into Ordovician, Silurian, Devon, Carboniferous, Permian (with it's extinction), Triassic, Jurassic, Cretaceous, Paleogene, Neogene - early humans and us.

It would be not just super fun but also give people an idea of how prehuman history unraveled, because it seems most of the people have all the periods just mashed together in their heads.

The Field Museum has a pretty good exhibit covering the history of life from the days before life (and some of the fossils that point towards different origins of life; whether the organic compounds came from underwater vents or from meteorites) all the way to Cro-Magnon man. And then, in the lobby, you can look at some taxidermied animals of more modern vintage.
