Ah ha! The man names the "thing that shall not be named" by ultra-conservative (scientifically speaking) geologists and paleontologists. Bravo, dear fellow! If this thought is on the minds of those scientists, imagine the debates and discussions raging right now!
As a scientist though, and one not privy to all the accumulated data, of course I must be reluctant to side with such an interpretation just yet.
"They" are also keeping this in mind as well.
