from 111 dangus: "Well, I was referring to percent matches of DNA among Crocodillia, Anura, Aves, and a Dinosaur DNA sample found in the 1980s.

js1138: "Do you have a link to the finding of dinosaur DNA? "

This is too laughable for words. Dinosaur DNA! ;-)

Yes, of course, DINOSAUR DNA! It was in a book, don't you see? About mosquitoes trapped in amber, remember? They even made a real scary movie from it, then sequels -- about a park, from the Jurassic era... now I remember, those frog-like velociraptors... ;-)

js1138, I hate to say this pal, but you are way too subtle for these guys! ;-)

[dangus]

It was probably amino acid sequencing, come to think of it...

Just trying to move the debate forward without being rude.

There are bits and pieces of reality scattered throughout the discussion of dino DNA and frogs. But since the advent of DNA sequencing machines, anything said about DNA and lineages before 2000 is likely to be out of date.
