I suspect that the date refers to McIntosh and Berman's 1975 paper, "
Description of the palate and lower jaw of Diplodocus...with remarks on the
nature of the skull of Apatosaurus. J.Paleontol. 49: 187-199. This was when
the great (and satisfying) switcheroo was made with the skull of Apatosaurus.
It was a big deal back then, but most of you out there were probably stem
