The above posting and previous are specific examples of why it is 
absolutely imperative for new list members to read the Dinosaur List 
guidelines and archives for a while before posting.  Mickey Rowe is of 
course the list owner, and invoking Mickey's name with a question is 
not yet a universal insult.  

As this is a list for the scientific discussion of dinosaurs, speculation
is best couched in the form of a question.  Also, as GSP said last
year, "If you are going to play with the big boys..."  

I am sure that Dr. Willis'  fossil crocodile publications, books, radio 
and television appearances are sufficient qualifications to speak as an
expert on this list.
