Regarding Sauropod Necks

["Jordan Mallon" <j_mallon@hotmail.com>]

Good day fellow dino-nuts!

I?m writing with just a simple request (I hope!).  I?ve recently opted to do 
some in-depth research into the physics and mechanics of sauropod necks for 
my OAC (grade 13) physics class independent study.  I have found numerous 
resources both in my own personal library and on the Internet, but was 
wondering if anyone else could please point out some more resources that I 
might have missed, be it scientific papers (of which I don?t have any on the 
subject), links, books, etc.  I will be sure to delve thoroughly into the 
DML?s archives as well.
Also, seeing as how most everyone else in my class will be fabricating 
catapults, bridges, and the like, I am also leaning towards building a model 
of my own, illustrating the ?nuts and bolts? behind sauropod necks.  Any 
ideas as to how I might do this?
My proposal is due when I get back from March break at the end of this 
coming week, and I would very much appreciate any help I can get.  Thanks in 
advance!
