Sue in Boston



..Okay, so it's a full-size skeletal replica.  Still,
it was impressive.  As many of you may already know,
one of the casts of the "Sue" skeleton was sent to the
Museum of Science in Boston.  Being a native of the
area, I made my way (finally) to see the exhibit (that
ends October 9th) last weekend.  I'd like to make it
to Chicago sometime to see the real thing (in all
"her" glory) and to check out DinoFest, but
unfortunetely no definite plans have been made as of
yet.  Lots of good stuff going on there, though.  

One other thing that might be of interest: the
outdated (circa 1970s) huge Tyrannosaur model/statue
in the permanent dinosaur/paleontology exhibit at the
Museum of Science is going to be replaced with a new,
more accurrately interpreted model by June 2001. 
There's a bit of info about it here:
