This story states:
"A Montana company called Dinosauria International sponsored the $350,000
construction of the Jurassic giant and plans to take it on the road starting in
August: first to Dinofest 2000 in Chicago and then to the Smithsonian
Institution in Washington, D.C., next spring."

Can we therefore conclude that Dinofest 2000 would take place in Chicago in
August, 1999 rather than the rumored St. Louis, Missouri location in spring
2000?  Something is not right here.  Dinophiles would probably especially enjoy
it if the event took place in Chicago coincident with the unveiling of the "Sue"
mount at the Field Museum in May 2000, but who knows?

I know, I know; wait 'til the !$%#@ journal is published.  %^P
