Dinosaur "diversity"??
We just throw that word around today like catnip in an alley.
The bottom line is....everyone wants to publish...it's the way to get grants.
Man is so stuck on himself.

"The reason for this discrepancy in dinosaur diversity has never been adequately explained"
0bama's fault.

Sounds like a song title: “Dinosaur Boom”.

Has anyone just taken a shot at dinosaurs got wiped out because of genetic shortcomings, gestation time, (perhaps killing of their young (or anothers) for food??) and basic stupidity.
To: Sacajaweau
They were doing great, all those methane emissions produced global warming, global warming meant mor dinoasaurs, more methane, more warmth, more dinosaurs. Then, boom! The asteroid came and blowed it all up real good.
That’s where the Rockies came from. Dinosaur farts.
To: Renfield
Ive gone back to a time where dinosaurs werent just confined to zoos!

Finally...A sensible explanation.
To: Sacajaweau
That’s why they called pterodactyls “Thunderbirds,” you know.
Boom!
To: Lazamataz
Sounds like a song title: Dinosaur Boom.Close....
Cool album cover, but I'll save you the trouble: It's a Chicago/Blood, Sweat & Tears wannabe band. Song "Mermaid" is nice, the rest is a bit of a trudge. "Big Bird" was a (very) minor hit.

Dinosaur Boom Linked to Rise of Rocky MountainsFrom that headline I expected 'The Rocky Mtns. are actually mounds of petrified dinosaur scat.'

Evil white people killed the dinosaurs. Bush made them do it, so he could control the oil. Why won’t the govt. protect us from rising mountains.

I remember buying this in the remainder bin for the album cover. Always wanted to make a wall display of all the cool album covers I have stashed over the years, but the wife would rather have floral wallpaper. Go figure.

Thanks Renfield!
One interesting finding is that dinosaurs were born in the summers of their 47th years.
To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list. |

...a time known as the Campanian. Then just WHERE are all the dino's today; for we have a campaigniam era every four years now!
Have the rino's become too powerful and crowded them out of their ecological niche?

A new "State of the Art" structure has been built around the "Wall of Bones" that will protect the quarry at Dinosaur National Monument for years to come.Thank GOD that they didn't just leave them bones in a pile of dirt.
Who KNOWS what would have happened to them!!
I've camped a couple of times at DNM and have hiked the Red Canyon trail.
After a 1/2 mile or so and a couple of turns; one could swear than the dinos could be around the next bend! Splendid isolation and a feeling of 'being lost' with no compass or GPS.
Ah... The good ol' days!
