Re: Triassic mammal-like reptiles?



<<Lets face it, it is a lot more comprehensible to the layman than the more
correct names used by professionals.>>

Unfortunately, John, it's also totally misleading.  It suggests I'm a
descendant of reptiles, and I'm not.  This is my personal family history
we're talking about.  I've nothing against reptiles, but I'm not in the
least reptilian.  'Mammal-like' is fine for some of my ancestors, but that's
no reason to reptilialise them.

I actually am a layman.
