Dinosaur Redux


The BBC looks at what our world would be like if the asteroid that supposedly caused the extinction of the dinosaurs hadn't struck 65 million years ago.

Would the dinosaurs still rule the Earth? Would we be sharing the world with an sentient race evolved from the sauropods? If so, would they be deeply spiritual, intelligent creatures with a fresh, alien perspective who would enhance our philosophy and enrich our lives? Or would they just be annoying?

I'm betting on the latter.

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
