In response to Dr. Holtz's invitation for questions on theropod 
systematics... coincidentally earlier today I was looking through a back 
issue of _The Dinosaur Report_ published by the Dinosaur Society and came 
across an article by Dr. Holtz which questioned whether Tyrannosaurus 
belongs to the carnosauria or the coelurosauria. I don't have the article 
at hand, but (correct me if I'm wrong, Tom) the gist of it was that T. 
rex really has more in common with the coelurosauria. If this is the 
case, would it be correct to say that T. rex is more closely related to 
Coelophysis than Allosaurus?
