       Actually for me it was Adrian Desmond's "Hot Blooded Dinosaurs" book, 
rather than Bakker. I 
*still* haven't had my sweaty little paws on Bakker's book. (Memo to self : 
must pilfer Matt's copy 
when I help him move flat next week!) As I remember, it was the "book of a 
series" for a couple of 
the Beeb's Horizon programs when I was doing my geology O-level (15+ exams for 
non-Brits).

       Good grief, my memory is still functional! Shock, horror!
