 The June Discover has an article about Jenny Clack's work on the
origin of tetrapods and the variety in digit numbers in those early
forms. It's the cover article no less. Jenny's been doing some neat
stuff and gave a nice talk here a year or two ago.

Just received the first two issues of Dinosaurus. They are visually
quite striking but have yet to rest them out of Linda Deck's hands
to actually read them so will report as I get a chance. The only mistake
I actually saw when I SCANNED them was a reference to a Bob Horner, which
I think was to be Jack but ended up the result of Jack Horner and Bob
Bakker having a kid. The thought might put me off food for a few days.
But seriously, they obviously put a lot of effort into making it very
visually striking with a Bill Stout theme running through the 2nd issue.
I'll get to the content this weekend between holes on a golf course
in Hershey Pennsylvania and a wedding reception. We all have to have
lives too.
