How small is small?



Occasionally I see references to "small" dinosaurs, or even to "large" 
dinosaurs, as well as everything in-between (for example, recent postings 
relating to phylogeny of Herrerasaurus).

Are there generally understood limits for the size terms small, medium, 
large, moderately large, etc., as applied to dinosaurs?
