Well, I can't contact the Black Hills Institute.
It is a company that sells exhibits and whatever and not an academic
nor
scientific institution, from what I can gather from their web site.
No researchers connected with them are named anywhere on the web site.
Let
alone e-mails to contact them. Only a President, an Executive
Secretary
(for legal questions), a couple of other executive officers. Hmm....
And their general info and sales forms do not work. When I typed in
my
question and sent it I got internal server error both times.
Does anyone know how to contact anyone associated with them?

Subject: T rex feathers
Someone named Kyle Lindsey wrote me privately, for some reason, that
his
"friends" at the Black Hills Institute have dug up a T rex in Montana
and
"had just found some feather imprints on near the humerus." And he
told
me
that the web site for Paul Sereno, whatever that is, is
http://www.paulsereno.org.
I followed this link and found no obvious sign of an individual named
Paul
Sereno at it; though supposedly he is a paleontologist. No such
person
is
on "Paul Sereno's" staff. And their list of discoveries doesn't
include
a
T rex. But I wrote to the project manager of Paul Sereno, whatever
that
is; Dr. Wendy Taylor,
wtaylor@uchicago.edu, and asked if she knows anything about either
report.
And I suppose I'll see what is going on at the Black Hills Institute.
