Re: segnosaurs not therizinoid??

["Jack Conrad" <conradjack@hotmail.com>]

Hi all,

The article you guys are referring to is a couple of years old.  I was 
actually an undergraduate trying to finish up some stuff when I wrote it.  
I'm not very happy with many aspects of it and not longer hold most of those 
views.  I do plan to do some therizinosauroid work in the future and have 
gotten some preliminary data.  It's too bad that _Nanshiungosaurus_ is 
starting to fall apart and I've not gotten to see it yet...  I fear that the 
time to act on some of this stuff is at hand and rapidly passing.

Though I'm still not convinced that all current therizinosauroids form a 
clade, I'm convinced at this point that they're all coelurosaurs.  I look 
for more stuff to come out of the woodwork as the various East Asian 
expeditions continue.

More on this later,

Jack
