...the next time you hi-jack my morning.

...just so you know, I'm a sucker for almost ANYTHING to do with paleontology. Great video, by the way.

a great fan of Michael Crichton books. When Jurassic Park first came out I was like, OMG!! woot! I read it in three days. I couldn't believe he came out with LOST WORLD after that..

I thought it was a very good idea to make velociraptors the most fearsome of the carnosaurs, and not the big T-rex, but I would have preferred that they use Deinonychus instead of Utah Raptors...but that's just me. Loved how they based the Sam Neil character on Jack Horner, one of my favorite paleontologists - and they even had one guy on the dig that was obviously supposed to look like Bob Bakker. Oh well, I'm rambling now. Sorry.

Thanks, again!

There's nothing that capitalism can't corrupt. China should stuck with real communism.
