  A problem likely due to some presuming this form belongs in
*Diplodocus.* My personal opinion is that it is intermediate between
*Apatosaurus* and *Diplodocus,* based on pelvic features, but this is why
they list *Suuwassea* as "unequivocal" ... presuming no possible synonymy
with other taxa and keeping an eye out for it.

  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.
