  I love how gene trees alter or are so drastic relative to morph trees. a
combination would be nice, as well. However, the falsification requires
mosasaurs in the same tree to be tested against, as Pythonomorpha includes
them by definition (Lee, 1997). I noticed that *Lanthanotus* was not
included ... how sad, as an anguimorph it should have been, but is sadly
VERY rare in collections.

  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.
