Sorry to pick up on only one of the points raised in Amandos mail, but 
a thought just occurred to me...... (unusual though this may seem to 
some - or should I say 'a more morally acceptable one than the 
polesex.gif')

How would the predator/prey ratios be affected by one form of 
dinosaur being 'warm-blooded' and the other 'cold-blooded' (in a 
relative sense of course)?
