To uncover the new species, a three-person team led by the Florida Museum of Natural History's Chris Hamilton spent more than a decade on the hunt, logging thousands of miles of travel across the United States, hundreds of hours of laboratory analysis, and fieldwork on remote mountains and in scorching deserts. 10+ years' worth of paychecks for jaunting around the country. Nice work if you can get it.

ROFL!! Ah, that’s different! My niece absolutely dreads spiders, as do my sisters, so I assumed the same about your girl.

Your fear of spiders is irrational. Most aren't poisonous. In fact, many are cute like this one...
To: DeoVindiceSicSemperTyrannis
you’re a sick pup if you think that’s cute!!
the devil’s spawn!!!
alright, maybe i’m overreacting a little bit.
i work overnights, and while asleep before, i heard, for two hours i think, my wife screaming about a bug and running from room to room begging the cat to get her.
Thank goodness for NyQuil.

Seeing the headline made me immediately think of Johnny with One Bad Pig...
Johnny Cash & One Bad Pig - Man In Black
It also brought a smile remembering my encounters with the Haitian Brown Tarantulas. These things were HUGE but apparently harmless to humans as the MK's (boys, never the girls) would keep them in a shoebox as pets.
You haven't lived until you are investigating why your usually docile dog is barking furiously @ 2AM when you realize you are intersecting one of these "beauties" in your house. Oh, and they can jump several feet in the air when threatened. I can smile now...
