Please pass this on to Tim.

The University of Utah has an excellent display of Jurassic dinosaurs.
They are located in the Museum of Natural History, on campus.  They
have a mounted Allosaurus, Stegosaurus, and one or two others that I
don't remember off hand.  They have a nice display of other fossils,
and a nice mineral display also.  The whole museum is intersting.  If
you go to Salt Lake City, and like the geosciences, you shouldn't miss
it.

I used to spend a lot of time between classes there, and miss having it
nearby.
