Ok, I have imported the Tree Of Life XML file which contains approx 36,000 entries. Each entry only has the scientific name and position in the evolutionary hierarchy. May be able to request the XML file include more info (ie common names) since it is funded by National Science Foundation. To find man's position in the hierarchy, submit query "(verifyRel (. 'Life 'on 'Earth) evolvedTo Homo)". Tree automatically expands to display him approx 70 levels deep from the root!
