This reminds me of a hilarious article I read about ten years ago in -- I
think -- Natural History Magazine. It was illustrated with a weapon-toting
theropod, and facetiously made the case that heavy metal contamination and
extinction of large animals are signs of OUR times, so maybe dinos went out as
we may, by pollution or nuclear means. It was cute.
