SAVE US! Dinosaurs are interesting and we love to look at them!
Gargoyles are a different mater.
The idiot was looking for uranium in sedimentary rock layers. Highly unlikely.
Bones of dinosaur found north of Billings may be new speciesUncovered last summer, the long-necked, giant dinosaur with a walnut-size brain appears to be a new species, according to Malta paleontologist Nate Murphy, who led the dig at the foot of the Little Snowy Mountains. The discovery may reveal crucial information about the history of the once-dominant plant-eating giants known as sauropods. The latest find seems to provide a previously undocumented link between two similar types of dinosaurs... Murphy and his team recovered the complete neck, skull, teeth and other bones from the 20-ton dinosaur believed to have roamed the flood plains of ancient Montana 150 million years ago. The delicate skull was a particularly rare find. Only about two dozen sauropod skulls have ever been found, and Murphy estimates that 90 percent of those were flattened or broken when they were buried. Ralph's skull was mostly intact.

thanks.
Q: What's a dinosaur decay into?
A: Gargoyl.
Reminds me of the classic Far Side cartoon.
Dinosaur with overhead slide being projected, standing in front of an audience of fellow dinosaurs.
"Gentlemen, the future does not look good. The climate is changing, the mammals are taking over, and we have brains the size of walnuts."
Agreed, the editorializing jumped right out and grabed me.
It's quite ironic that a pillar of the Dinosaur media would feature a story about a Dinosaur find.
Any smart Houstonian knows that you only rent 2nd floor and up apartments. The cockroaches are too big to climb the stairs. They know what you're doing, though, and they get really surly when you start to carry your groceries upstairs.
You might rethink that statement.
