Surely you can see the difference between a T. rex (or any other)
fossil, which has a priceless scientific and cultural value, and a simple
commodity like coal or gas or whatever, which is bought and sold freely by
private interests. . . which, by the way, are also allowed to pursue their
private business on public lands *relatively* unhindered by the government.
Keep it in perspective!
