No problem. I think it bombed at the box office.

Woulda been way harder to bring down than a grizzly.

I despise hunting but I would imagine there are some who would enjoy such a risky challenge.

One palaeontologist said T Rex was a road runner from hell.

They rely on the scientific method, not some ex cathedra decree.

”The computer models suggest that the largest individual that might have existed could have been 70 per cent more massive then the current largest-known specimens.”

Or maybe, one of the current specimens is, in fact, at the large end of the T Rex size spectrum. In which case, the computer model is crap.

You load 16 tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
St. Peter, don’t you call me ‘cause I can’t go
I owe my soul to the company store
I was born one mornin’ when the sun didn’t shine
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
I loaded 16 tons of number nine coal
And the straw boss said, “Well, a-bless my soul”
