Hadrosaurs have made it to the New Scientist now

3D modelling recreates dinosaur running

B is interested by the rather different places this story is finding its way into (compared to the T. Rex story), and by it's much slower build. The T. Rex story was huge but had pretty much run its course after 24 hours. This one, while much smaller, continues to be picked up by places and is finding it's way into a few High Performance Computing/Supercomputer outlets which the T. Rex story didn't.

The hopping hadrosaur is nicely quirky, that's why *g*.

Ever since you first mentioned hopping hadrosaurs, I've been thinking what a pleasing sound the phrase has. Now I've just found myself walking round the house singing, to the tune of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, "Behold the hopping hadrosaur / go hopping oer the land." A few minutes later, I was singing, "Ding dong merrily on high, the hadrosaurs are hopping."

What have you done to me? ;-)
