Re: Sauropod Stances

[Matt Celeskey <deadanimal@hmnh.org>]

It was a pleasant surprise to visit the Palaeoblog this morning and see 
the link to the article I'd long ago transcribed into the Hairy Museum 
Library. I started the Library as a way to make available in HTML 
format some grand old papers that are now out of copyright--the few 
articles I've gotten through are available here:

http://www.hmnh.org/library/index.html

In addition to sprawling sauropod papers by Hay and Holland, Cope's 
"Fossil Reptiles of New Jersey" and description of Amphicoelias 
fragillimus are on there, as well as Osborne's initial description of 
Tyrannosaurus rex which I put online for its 100th anniversary.

Shortly following that last one, the AMNH and other institutions made 
many of their papers available as PDFs, which no doubt saved me from a 
serious case of carpal tunnel.

Enjoy!
