MALEEVOSAURUS TOO, FOLKS!

Not mentioned thus far on this list is that Carr, in his _JVP_ 16 abstract
(sorry, don't have the page no. on me), also suggested that Ken Carpenter's
_Maleevosaurus_ could be a juvenile of one of the better known 'big boys' too.
> Bakker's CAT scans have not been published
Note that many of us will recall seeing them on various TV documentaries. In
fact, the 3-d computer animated tyrannosaur skull that Ruben et al. keep using
is one of Bakker's _Nanotyrannus_ shots isn't it?
And while on the subject of tyrannosaurs, Tim Williams (if memory serves)
recently referred to the infamous 'stretch-snout daspletosaur' as
'Chicagotyrannus'. What gives Tim? This is a new one on me (as if
'Clevelanotyrannus' wasn't bad enough..).
