Bones
It has recently been discovered (by me) that bones continue to grow even after death.
The rate of growth is very small, but bones do continue to process minerals and increase in size over the millennia.
Over a span of 65 million years, bones can make incredible size changes.
What this means to paleontologists, however is significant.
What it means is that dinosaurs were really quite small creatures.
The largest of which were never larger than a medium sized dog.
I have done a large amount of research on the matter and am certain of it's veracity.
Any sore loser paleontologists will just have to learn to live with it.

Good Lord, are you sure they just don't take on water and expand a bit?
Well the orifices of Savant Research have been processing overtime, and the BS quotent has risen to flood levels, sir. Kind of reminds me of the religious postulate that since dinosaurs were not mentioned in the bible that they never existed; Noah would never have had room for them on the ark. If your theory "held water", then even human bones would have swollen to Kongian proportions, bursting caskets, uprooting tombstones, creating bone gardens everywhere we looked. Sort of a nice image,that.
My TFC meeting got cancelled last night due to lack of interest. No, actually King's Books closed early, like 5pm, and our meeting would have been at 7pm. The final presidential debate took its toll as well. We usually shake out 20-25 members for meetings. 6 folks showed up latish last night. I went home, tired of standing in the street in the rain, at 7:30pm.
We are off to Pac Beach this evening to set up for Miss Melva's 5th Annual Birthday Bash. Several invitees are dropping out of that too, which makes it tough since we reserved two houses ocean side based on former RSVP's . Such is life.

Nice thought, enit?

Hey, there's a new entry on FFTR. It really is some hot humorous lines; kind of a cross between Andy Rooney and Mark Twain.

Humans have not been around long enough for any appreciable increase in fossil bone size.
Not every budding artist can become a powerful political leader but many try to reach a position of dictatorship in their little world. As a rule of thumb, the less talented such a person is, the greater the urge to be in charge. Of course this is true as well in other fields than the arts. Incompetent people become our leaders while the capable and smart ones hide in the background. The propaganda machinery works hard to make these individuals look like something special, be it a politician or a musician. Usually truth is of no value and can't be seen from the jungle of lies. History will eventually tell us the true state of affairs, but by then it is too late. A little miserable newspaper reporter or critic in the media with a soul of a scorpion can pretend to run a town's public opinion, to the benefit of others like him, his soul brothers and sisters. With this help a truly inferior baton wielder or "soloist" can broadcast that he/she is in high demand and sought after worldwide. Cucamonga is not London or even Liverpool, but to these people it is the center of the world and they like to make the townspeople believe just that
Whoops, forgot to attribute that.
It's from Ilkka Talvi's site.
Go read the whole thing.
Plus, you've got to realize that much less of the earth's total biomass potential had been converted into plants and animals so that more could be utilized for other kinds of growth.
Or maybe you don't have to realize it.
How about this for skeletons in a closet: Every time I post anything related to the local band, my entries are removed from all search
engines. Repeatedly!
Check your own material. People in the IT field suspect a local, influential and VERY wealthy individual as the only possible culprit.
This is America--not China.
