  Actually, there are two new titanosaurs from the Maeverano sequence,
*Rapetosaurus* was the first described. This is the second taxon,
Titanosaur species A, which Kristina is working on herself, but I think
Cathy Forster is also involved on somewhat. Could be wrong. Kristina has
been describing this taxon in abstracts for the last two years, and this
SVP will be shoing more of it than at the 1999 exposition in Denver which
showcased both for the first time.

  Little steps are often the hardest to take.  We are too used to making leaps 
in the face of adversity, that a simple skip is so hard to do.  We should all 
learn to walk soft, walk small, see the world around us rather than zoom by it.
