<< Also I would like too know if everyone now agrees that the Pelecanimimus
 impressions say nothing about whether or not it had feathers? >>

I can't add anything regarding the fluffy Dilophosaurus.  However, I believe
the "feathers" on Pelecanimimus turned out to be muscle fibers.  This would
not, however, discredit the possibility that Pelecanimimus had feathers, since
only muscle fibers and no actual skin impressions were found.
