You are of course refering to Sandy, the most
complete *Pachycephalosaurus*? Found in the Hell
Creek, this skull and skeleton have apparently been
ascribed to *Pachycephalosaurus*, though it was
formerly considered *Stygimoloch* based on the caudal
squamosal "horns." Triebold and Russell (1995) in the
15th issue of _JVP_ (suppl. to 3) described the Sandy
site to some degree. I am unaware, however, of more
extensive information. Triebold _has_ appeared on TV
(in Paleoworld, and I think on another program)
describing the unique neck of this animal and
dismissing the whole "battering ram" theory.
