   I wouldn't worry -- Rob's paper says some things quite different from 
Nesbitt et al., and in some instances provide another interpretation.  Rob 
also looks at many lines of evidence that Nesbitt et al. don't, so his paper 
will still be quite valuable...really, it's only lost the distinction of 
being the first paper to examine the subject rigorously in a while.  Rob's 
paper should be out in a few months in our Triassic-Jurassic Terrestrial 
Transition volume of the NMMNH Bulletin series.
