Incidentally, a point for folks who love to cite measurements from news reports 
as data (as in, for instance, the occasional new
Tyrannosaurus specimen):
Please note the measurements given for the skull (especially the width), and 
then compare the skull to the human beings in the
photograph.  Darn, pretty big people out there in Point Pleasant... ;-)
