Definitely a nice piece of work. My story is up at 
http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn7459 

This work is based on the same T. rex femur that yielded the soft tissue. In 
fact, Mary Schweitzer said that she spotted this unusual bone tissue, medullary 
bone, first, then discovered the soft tissue when she started looking closer.
