Re: re: Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia



Miki Baker writes about "the Dig" at the Academy of Natural Sciences:

I confess that I haven't looked too carefully at the photographs, but
some of them I've recognized from Louis Psihoyo's new book, _Hunting
Dinosaurs_.  I haven't decided to buy the book yet, but I did leaf
through it at a book store.  It is filled with some great pictures, so
you can see them even if you can't make it to Philadelphia.

I happen to have a copy of one of the Academy Newsletters with me.  It
says:

     Dino Days
     November 25-27

       Kids can never get enough of dinosaurs, so give them more.
     During the Thanksgiving break from school, let them play out
     their fantasies through dinosaur craft-making, dinosaur
     story-telling and dinosaur movies.  It's all part of a special
     Dino Days to accompany our newest exhibit, The Dig -- A Dinosaur
     Adventure.

I think I have some more detailed information at home if you want to
know more.

P.S. Don't just pick on me... Sherry can pull her weight around here
too, you know :-)  Speaking of Sherry, does anybody on the FAQs
committee want to give us a progress report?
