Bonus post: Supersaurus before Ultrasaurus!

NOTE: This blog post contains a link to a better quality version of the 1976 Âfilm about Jim Jensen and original Supersaurus discovery that I had provided another link to (from a somewhat beat-up 16 mm film print on YouTube--the blog version here is from a video tape it seems with the beginning sequence intact). I couldn't find the link to this better version earlier, so I'm happy to know about it. Apparently, this film is edited down from one an hour long. There was also a film made for Japanese television about the dig.
