Re: Muscles : Most annoying question in DML History!



"I keep hearing t-rex biased fans claiming that the big guy was "more powerful, faster, more advanced, more gracile[etc.]" than G. carolinii"

What wrong with telling the truth?
 >:)   Imagine how ticked off we are when there are books and stuff are saying "The King is Dead" and such just because Giganotosaurus is a bit bigger, not to mention that annoying second Dinotopia book with its grossly inaccurate Giganotosaurus (the Giganotosaurus have foward facing eyes!).  Compare Gregory Paul's skeletal restorations of the two and decide for yourself.  

Although I don't support the view of big theropods as only scavengers I think Horner should have a much easier time accusing Giganotosaurus of being chiefly a carrion eater.

Note:  Don't expect the Mailing List Masters to answer this because they always want to be "fair" and they don't like to tell how they feel about this issue.
