Re: Suuwassea Press Release



"Suuwassea is the first unequivocal new sauropod from the Morrison Formation 
a 150-million-year-old geological formation extending from New Mexico to 
Montana in more than a century.  It has a number of distinguishing features, 
but 
the most striking is this second hole in its skull, a feature we have never 
seen 
before in a North American dinosaur," said Peter Dodson, senior author and 
professor of anatomy at Penn School of Veterinary Medicine and professor in the 
Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences. " 

       Seismosaurus gets no respect. It's the Rodney Dangerfield of 
sauropods. DV
