Re: STEGOSAUR CHEEKS..

<<For those of you for whom this is new, this means that most
ornithischians had cheeks (except a few basal forms). This includes:
stegosaurs, ankylosaurs, hpysilophodonts, iguanodonts, hadrosaurs,
ceratopsians, pachycephalosaurs, and so on.>>
Didn't Greg Paul in a paper a few years ago argue that all
Ornithischians (including Lesthosaurs and such) had cheeks that
they inhereted from a common phytodinosaurian ancestor with
segnosaurs? Even if Segnosaurs do turn out to be theropods (which
they won't), does this idea seem reasonable? Is Greg Paul still on
the list?
