Common vs Latin name in card trivia text
Of the six cards on today's front page, half use the common name and half use the Latin name of the organism in the card's trivia text. Is this intentional? I notice you've standardized on the Latin name in the Special Ability text.
Common name:

http://phylogame.org/2010/09/21/antarctic-krill/
http://phylogame.org/2010/09/20/marbled-polecat/
Latin name:
http://phylogame.org/2010/09/22/common-blackbird/
http://phylogame.org/2010/09/17/ethiopian-wolf-2/
http://phylogame.org/2010/09/16/wild-boar/
I can't think of any good arguments one way or the other, was just wondering if anyone is paying attention to this detail.

No, not intentional - just a mistake - the plan is to use the latin name wherever possible!

Hmmm... except maybe the Krill one, which has a more generalized blurb...
