now they tell us ...
clever scientists now tell us, that after about a hundred years of categorical statements about the size of dinosaurs, that they probably got it wrong. that they were quite skinny creatures really. they've revised their estimate of the weight of the biggest down from about 36 tons to 18 tons.
what??
only 50 per cent out??
SACK THEM ALL!

Pro yes, it's a true story - makes you wonder what else we accept as fact, that isn't ...

I have always wanted to know how they know all this anyway. I mean, how could they, they wasn't even around at the times they talk about!

Well, I reckon scientist 500 years from now will be puzzled about how the British and American natives seemed to double their weight within a couple of generations. Which makes me wonder if dinosaurs liked fast food?

Pro aha! it might explain the remains of mcdinosaurs ...

I totally agree with Ellie. And maybe they just got out of the habit of walking everywhere. I reckon Fred Flinstone probably had it right after all!

Pro maybe they just went to weight watchers?
