Great news though.  Makes you wonder why they could not find a CT scan
in London, but enough of the politics.

Probably because Tim Rowe has been CT scanning fossils for a while and has learned how to interpret the results. He was the one who scanned Archaeoraptor and found it was a composite.

 Whilst the Chinese dino-birds
may be to squashed to scan, there must be some proposed 2F specimens
available.


I'm told the Gobi fossils are suitable for CT scanning. -- Jeff Hecht
