Re: JP3 Thoughts (frilled Dilophosaurus revisited)

Yes it is indeed sad.  There is nothing wrong with fantasy as long as you
view it as such but when the general public takes what they see on the JP
movies as fact well... its just sad.  For one dinosaurs would be no more
interested in attacking humans then modern day predators are and a T.rex
going after people would be like a lion going after a rabbit, something that
does happen sometimes but is not preferred.  A lot of people don't seem to
realize that dinosaurs weren't these "super monsters bent on destruction"
but were living creatures just as vulnerable and aggresive as any other.
Hopefully the good that comes out of these movies, inspired future
paleontologist, simpathy for dig funds etc, will outweigh the bad.
