Wow! I have trod your sacred land and did not realize upon which I stepped. I think I dated one of those Ornithiscians, but how was I to know he was in a very old religious sect?! (They sound birdlike so I will be off to www.google.com to find them)

Please tell us more about the Ornithiscian you'd once dated and the arcane religious practices of their sect. That is if you don't have to kill the person(s) to whom divulge such information.

*GRIN* I was sworn to secrecy, but it did involve a great deal of unbuttoning and attempts to rebutton faster than it was undone. As for the feathers... Perhaps that is best left to the imagnation.

Marcia, it seems it might have been a bit of a ticklish situation. *Grin* Say no more.

I guess I got spoiled by seeing real ones all those years in the American Museum of Natural History. The archaeologist and paleontologist in me also rebels at putting feelings into these creatures. We have found so few of somes of them we have no idea how they lived. Yeah, I know. I just take the kids and be quiet. Only I don't have any kids to take. Too dark in there to read a good book...*sigh* I'm delighted you enjoyed it, Wolfie!

i don't know if anyone can say exactly what these creatures did but i could hardly contain myself thinking about all the work that went into these creatures whose roars sounded like they came out of their mouths and the dilating pupils, and to think that T Rex was my fave out of all their critters. that's what amazed me the most!

I was watching a special on the movie on Discovery Channel and there is a 1000 hp (one thousand horse power) motor running that T Rex. Check out that chariot that gets you to the grocery store. That whole movie represents Huge amounts of money. Whether it might have been better used is a question I will not even think of answering. I am delighted both you and the kids (or is it all of you kids?!) enjoyed it.

Marcia, could you imagine getting to the grocery store in a 1,000 hp motorized T.Rex. That could make the neighbors sit up and take notice.
Wolfie, glad that you and the kids enjoyed the movie. I haven't seen it yet.

In California, a 1000 hp T Rex is the ONLY way to get from point A to point B on the freeways. At least we would be intact. No guarantees on scratches or dents, though. Don't you wonder what something like that eats? Anything it wants!
