It's fairly obvious to me and it should be to everyone that the 
australopithecine genes in the anthropologists are clearly jealous of the 
post-mortem success being enjoyed by dinosaurs that has never been, is not 
currently, and probably never will be enjoyed by them.  How many little kids 
do you know that pretend to be a happy family group of Australopithecus?  
Know of any major blockbusters revolving around genetically resurrected 
non-human hominids?  Can anyone call off hand how many coloring books there 
are for these guys as opposed to dinosaurs?  Yes, there is a definite 
conspiracy on the loose.
