Well that is a relief.

P.S.: You are correct, Jurassic Refere is far older than Mark and I, and uglier too, :D.

I have no idea what he looks like. I just assumed he looked like a fossile.

As an academically trained geologist, it really bugs me that Tyrannosaurus rex is, because of the movie, associated with the Jurassic Period. Tyrannosaurus rex lived in the Cretaceous Period, approximately sixty-eight to sixty-five million years ago. About an eighty million year error. The movie should have been called Mesozoic Park. I will now get off my geologist soapbox and return you to your regularly scheduled Forum posts.

Based on that chart the Civil War/War of Northern Aggression started a whole lot earlier than I was taught. Who knew that the Pennsylvanians and Mississippians have been around that long!!! And you thought the Hatfields and McCoy's held grudges!

I can completely understand your frustration.
