That's not the end. Apparently, if you're talking about plants there are different categories. So instead of "Phylum", you've got to deal with a "division", which is pretty much exactly the same, except that it has a different name. Now, what kind of genius thought that one up.
Now, I thought that the highest you could go was one of the five "Kingdoms". Well, it seems as if some genius decided that a Kingdom wasn't big enough and created another level called a "Domain". Now there are three Domains, and out of those three, two have only one Kingdom in them. Only a scientist would create some sort of crack-pot scheme that is 2/3 useless.
At any rate, all that these classifications have succeeded in doing is to make my life more complicated, the exact opposite of what they were supposed to do.
