I second the suggestion that this is not actually referring to a species of snake, or a particular specimen even.... It seems odd that Randall would post inaccurate information about snakes for no apparent reason.  Perhaps this is a reference to something else entirely... previous dictators? Where in the World is Carmen San Diego? N'Sync reunion concerts? {{unsigned ip|108.162.246.215}}

:::anaconda copper was founded in 1881, making it 'more than60 years old' - not a great connection in my book.  [[Special:Contributions/108.162.215.196|108.162.215.196]] 15:00, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
