  I would think this counts, as long as it is produced in a press. Is
there hardcopy available of this publication, or is it a web notice of
something previous to actual publication (many pubs who make issues
available online before publication state that their contents are not
available for purposes of nomenclature until the printed edition is
released). It really does have a superficial resemblance to "Fran" at the
OMNH, but so do parts of the USNM type for *A. atrox*, but the postcrania
is much more *Allosaurus*, with a taller ilium. Tonnes of true
allosaurines around, I'm sure.

  Little steps are often the hardest to take.  We are too used to making leaps 
in the face of adversity, that a simple skip is so hard to do.  We should all 
learn to walk soft, walk small, see the world around us rather than zoom by it.
