Re: Ostrom Obituary in the New York Times

The Deinonychus display was at the Yale-Peabody at the time of the 
Ostrom Symposium in February of 1999.  A number of DMLers attended and 
reported their observations on our list--see the archives at:
http://dml.cmnh.org/1999Feb/
--February 16-23 or so.

I have some nice pictures of John Ostrom with Tom Holtz, and I believe 
I have pictures of Tom, me and John, as well as others.  I'm glad I 
attended.

As you know, the photo was taken in front of the Academy of Natural 
Sciences, Philadelphia (ANSP). At that time, ANSP was the only place 
that had a _Deinonychus_ sculpture on display, and the only place with 
a permanent mount of the skeleton(s). [At the DinoFest (1998) in 
Phila., they had 3 (or was it 5) _Deinonychus_ skeletons on display]. I 
believe the Peabody exhibit was created in 2000 or 2001.
