Thanks. I just came from a parent teacher interview and was thinking of how good your father was at inspiring students—or at least students capable of inspiration—at all things editorial.

Correct. I think writers just like to throw in T. Rex as it is more “interesting” to the general public, accuracy be damned.

Remove the phrase that I have bracketed to find a more profound truth [I don’t know how to post the crossed out words followed by “fixed it”, so this will have to do.] FIXED IT!!

Use < S > to start strike out (no spaces between the brackets and the s) and < /S > to stop strikeout. (again no spaces). I inserted them around your parenthetical quote above because now you know!!

Leaving the spaces in, that is.

“Jurassic Park” should have been called “Cretaceous Park” but that doesn’t have the same appeal.

I like that part of the world. In high school, we used to go on OMSI field trips to Fossil, and one of my brothers spent a summer at Camp Hancock around 1967 or so. Then I worked for the Forest Service on the Ochoco National Forest for a few seasons in the 80s. There used to be a really good restaurant in Mitchell then, wonder if it’s still there. In 2017 my wife and I watched the eclipse near Seneca, and that’s the last time I’ve been to Oregon.
