>>>As a matter of fact. Keith, we don’t know how far back Humans go, nor how close in time to ours the dinosaurs were. Depends, anyway, on what you call a dinosaur: some people think the birds belong to that group.

Well Bishop Usher notwithstanding, we can’t pinpoint the first man down to the week and month. But we know men weren’t around 65 million years ago.

I appreciate the stretch of the birds though. That’s an amusingly good point. But the question was mankind and dinosaurs, not mankind and dinosaur’s evolutionary successors.

People shouldn’t take too seriously what they see on the Flintstones. Olbermann is a smug ass but it’s hard to defend Texas on this one. The numbers on the question are sadly embarrassing for the state.

But we don’t know that dinosaurs weren’t around a million years ago. I mean the crocodile has survived a long, long time. The next spade made turn up the remains of that non-T-rex dinosaur.
