Give it 50,000 years and they'll be digging up a Tookiesaurus!

Nice. But not really newsworthy enough for the ping list.

"Those sure don't LOOK like the teeth of a herbivore!!!????"

Although long notice they are peg type teeth..no sharp edges. If it was a meat eater those teeth would be more like shark teeth, needle/spinny type, or big cat type teeth.. depending of course on what they ate.

"Argentine paleontologists have discovered the largely intact skeleton of a young titanosaurus that lived 71 million years ago."

Note to self;
Update computer date by 71 million years, check auto day-light savings time.

Change battery.

While the skeleton is almost complete from ribs to tale, there is no sign of the head and neck ...

Ribs to tale = "near complete". So about 1/2 = "near complete"?

I wish the IRS would accept 1/2 as "near complete".

Yeah, I wasn't thinking that all the way through.

Herbivore does not necessarily = ruminant.... And I was thinking ruminant type tooth construction.

Can’t click on the link because the article is 18 years old as you’ve already pointed out.
