OK....

But the question is; How is this information going to piss-off the Creationists?

Female and minority dinosaurs suffered the brunt of that disaster.

And the babies.

[cavtrooper21]

I've read that there is good fossil evidence that the dinosaurs were already headed out the door when the rock hit. Lack of deversity/over specialization and other enviromental factor were slowly moving them out. The impact event just hastened the end.

I don't remember this happening. Someone should have woken me.

I am not part of the fundraiser here. Just an ordinary American, who believes in individual Liberty, and Freedom.

I guess I've been around here for about 5 years or so now. Time sure flies!

When Jim Robinson started this site, it was because he was fed up with the liberal media, and how they would not let people worldwide know about the corruption of the Clinton Administration. A few of us, equally concerned, (with great luck) found it fast.

In the early days, FR was a day-to-day operation, always on the brink of bankruptcy. Jim kept on, and we chipped in when it became too much. We knew how important this site was, and is. Sometimes, it came down to the wire, and we wrote checks, and sent them in, as best we could.

Look at it now. We all get our best information from this site. It is huge, with thousands of posters, and millions of readers. Yet Jim still keeps it alive because of his conviction, and he is absolutely NOT making a profit on it. He just believes. As do we.

BTW, did you know that the founder of this site is in a wheelchair (sorry Jim; I know you think it doesn't make a r*ts a$$ difference. Hey, some folks out there need to come down a peg, like I have.).

Think of it! In the darkest days of the Clinton Administration, there was a lone internet site where people with integrity, brains, and sheer gumption could discuss the dangers faced by the US. Not on CNN, for sure.

Earthmovers like Drudge, Ann Coulter, Rush, WFBuckley, his brother, Savage, Buchanan, both houses of Congress (many) check in to see what we think.

The opposition checks it out, too. Like the NY times staff, CNN, etc. Trust me, they all come here to read. Even YOUR post. You know by now how they are whining about Rush? We're next, as soon as they figure out how they can trash this site without it getting a million hits.

I've been broke; I've been not broke. I've slept in my car. I know how it feels to be squeezed tight with bills. Folks with giant bills: You're not alone, and you have friends here. :)

If you love this site as much as I do, please, please sign up for automatic payment of just $3 per month. Don't be embarrassed if you think this is too little. It absolutely is not. You $3 a month folks are our grassroots movement heroes. Be proud. Become one of the thousand points of light here, and you will so feel proud every month. We'll thank you for it, and are so glad to have you on board.

I know things are rough out there. But you are tough, and a member of the greatest grassroots freedom movement in 100 years. Together we are making history, and will change the world, as we already have. The best is yet to come.

Most countries out there would consider this website illegal. They hate us, for our freedom. Their systems cannot stand, in the face of Freedom. The people there read us when they can, when they are “allowed” to, and are not being tortured. They flock to us, America, because they want to be free. Help us help them.

Would you please, please consider signing up for just $3 a month? Please? That’s all it takes, really, believe it or not. You will make a world of difference, to, well, the world. Be proud, Americans, and please help out!

It won't

Why should it?

Esoteric science ... the long march to oblivion --- esotinction !

[balrog666]

They'll find a way.

You may or may not be correct, but the real cause of the demise of the female dinasours was caused by not being allowed to join the Augusta National Golf Club. My proof of this is that the last surviving member of that group, whose name just happens to be Martha Burke is still bitching about it.

Don't you know? Any disagreement between any scientists on any matter is proof that evolution is a crumbling edifice that masks disarray behind the scenes.

De evolutionists are stuck in a quagmire. Dey are holed up in de VIP lounge in de airport. Dun believe dem!

This controversial, discordant, and unpopular opinion about the Chicxulub asteroid crater is known as the Dixie Chicxulub theory.

[Dog Gone]

Great post. I won't lower my monthly support to that small of a level, though!

[MonroeDNA]

Extinction would never have happened if the dinosaurs came togehter to form a global village and invested time in the children.
