Forever Sue
Well, in a development about which I have known for some time, the Field
Museum announced today that it is keeping the name of Sue for the lady
T. rex. The contest yielded the name of "Dakota," but according to the
official statement, there were also some copyright issues on that name.
During the contest, the Larsons and BHI had offered to give the Field the
name of Sue, and the offer was accepted. The winners of the contest
will still get their prizes, and Sue will not have an identity crisis.
