Re: New papers in Acta Palaeontologica Polonica

    WOW!!  What an extraordinary cladogram.  Needless to say, Clade B is 
music to my ears (and eyes).
    But therizinosaurs between dromaeosaurs and Archaeopteryx is rather 
shocking.  I will have to take that with a very large grain of salt, but 
*definitely* food for thought.  Looks like a great paper and will no doubt 
raise a lot of eyebrows (and maybe drop a few jaws as well).
        ----- Cheers,   Ken
