Anchiornis probably neoflightless

[GSP1954@aol.com]

It does not look like the authors of the new Anchiornis paper are pushing 
the idea that it was some sort of protoglider. In fact, its anatomy suggests 
it was not a protoflier, but more likely was in the early stages of loss of 
flight from an ancestor better developed for flight, a trend that would 
become better developed in later flightless troodonts. What are these features? 
Am not going to say because Iâm thinking of submitting a note (although I 
discuss the basic features expected in early neoglightless dinobirds in DA). 
Will tell science correspondents who are interested.
