Long Live the Fairy Tale


MSNBC has good news for creationists everywhere:
T. rex was no slacker. But the popular image of a nimble predator turning on a dime and chasing down prey with lightning speed is fiction, new computer models show. The terrifying tyrannosaur was actually a slowpoke.
At least now we know that humans who lived during the time of dinosaurs had no problem outrunning the lumbering beasts. And, of course, it was definitely easier for Noah to get them on his ark too. Good news all around.
