Re: FAQ: Dinosaur Classification Overview

["Ken Kinman" <kinman@hotmail.com>]

Mike,
    Well, now that you mention it, I can always find something to complain 
about. ;-)
    I personally would prefer to see Herrerasauria formally recognized in 
your classification (as sister group to the rest of the theropods, i.e. 
neotheropods).  You could then have a section with a little more information 
about them, and perhaps also mention that some workers believe herrerasaurs 
are actually sister group to all other dinosaurs (not just to theropods).
    I just don't like any more "incertae sedis" groups floating about than 
absolutely necessary.  Even if they are left incertae sedis, I would prefer 
to see a couple of more sentences discussing them.
               ----Cheers, Ken
P.S.  This is total nit-picking, but I've never come across the term 
"bin-ends".  Is that sort of the British equivalent of "odds and ends"?   
Perhaps it is an American term as well, but it's new to me.  Just curious. 
:-]
