Biomechanics: Dinosaur locomotion from a new trackway

Cool, nice paper, but, uh, they do allow others to copy and post their
articles, right? Don't want you to get into trouble.

Anyway, the part on the changing of the pace from wide to narrow is
interesting because a talk at the Mesa Southwest Museum SPS symposium talked
about a large Camel track doing the opposite and they gave a good account
from a fast to a slower pace. Nice to see this also works for dinosaurs.
