    Why would a creationist be taking a survey about dinosaurs?


    See if you can crack this: b749f6c269a746243debc6488046e33f
    So far, no one seems to have cracked this!

    I just said it was fodder. It could be used for material against the seriousness of studying extinct species, that is all. For example, "These scientists are admitting the whole dinosaur thing is full of hot air." etc, etc, etc.

        That scientists can get caught up in trendy clap-trap and present it as fact should be more than "fodder for Creationists". It should be a general cautionary note about how pure science can be tainted by political pressure, fortune seeking, and general human corruption. To view it only as fodder for detractors of Evolution misses the larger issue. Identifying poor pop-science and eliminating it is good thing for all of us.

              By scaling up the digestive wind of cows

              Because Apatosaurus is closely related to cows, right? Ok they both eat plants.. Does anyone have a link to the original research? The media have a habit of oversimplifying things. If they really did what the article said they did, then it's the kind of crap that I'm sure many of us used to calculate for fun when were still in school. Not worthy of the term "research". Then again, it could just look that bad due to oversimplification.

                Instead of referring to them as researchers, perhaps we should call them, Brientists. :cool:

                      I have been palpably warming my local environment all day. Scale it up to the size and number of dinosaurs.... starts to feel legit. This does not smell fishy to me.
