Dinosaurs existed in the real world, not in computer programs and in the real world we don't know why they died out.

Of course we don't know all the details...isn't it great to have science, where we can construct hypotheses to test, or make observations, synthesize theories...?

Useful all but we don’t have many of the details or even the most important ones, so let’s be careful not to confuse the theory, the hypothetical, etc. with demonstrable fact.

“iridium...O.J...”? Not even close to clever!
