TODAY'S TWD: TALKIN' COPROLITE

Bill Crider's Pop Culture Magazine, which you will find linked at the left, pardners, reprinted this news item:

"For decades scientists have been mystified by the strangely-shaped skulls of the duck-billed, crested dinosaurs known as lambeosaurus. Their nasal passages are extremely long and twisty, looping up over the tops of their skulls. Originally it was believed that these were just super-noses providing a keen sense of smell. But today a group of Canadian and U.S. researchers present their latest findings about the lembeosaurus at the Society for Vertebrate Paleontology in Ohio — it turns out the nasal passages may have been used for fairly complicated communication between dinosaurs."

This report limits the possibility of dino-lingo to the lambeosaurus, but that's not good enough for Toobworld. It probably applies to all dinosaurs in TV Land, especially since we know they had a very advanced society - as seen on 'Dinosaurs!'......

Just sayin', is all......

BCnU!
