Meat-eating terror birds.

I don't think this post is resonating with people my age, because for us, dinosaurs are great.

The Flintstones' Dino, and the heady fun of Jurassic Park.

You just can't get worked up in terror about that.

Anyway, it's good to know anthropologists finally worked out the right timeline -- what's a mistake of 2,000,000 years here or there?

Cheers,
Victoria
