It's very strange that that particular issue is the only issue I've ever seen
of Earth Magazine in a store ever. There were many, many coppies of it too.
After the next issue came out, I never heard of the magazine again.
Also... I think the reason he failed to address Titanosaurs in the article is
along the same lines as why he insists on refering to Apatasaurus as
Brontosaurus. He is mostly a "general-public-paleontologist"; most people
have never heard of Titanosaurs, so he doesn't talk about them, just like
most people have ever heard that Brontosaurus became an invalid name he fails
to even mention it. (I know in the back of Heresies he says he calls her
Brontosaurus because they were named by the same guy and Brontosaurus was
named on better material, and Cope wouldn't be rolling in his grave etc..
etc...)
