Gloating and Derision

First, the Gloating:
Post K-T boundary dinosaur remains: It's also in this month's Discover magazine.

Now the Derision: HAH! The dogmatic scientific orthodoxy may have been wrong! HAH! F*ck you, Guardians of Scientific Orthodoxy.

*ahem*
Well, that felt good.

I won't sit here and whine about why I feel so strongly about it. If you're that concerned, I'll tell you. Otherwise, just know that it feels good to see new ideas being discussed instead of dismissed out of hand.

Did some dinosaurs make it thorugh the extinction event at the end of the Cretaceous and survive into the Paleocene? I have no idea. The important part is that it is being discussed. Science is about discussion.
