Re: What a childish response!

Pat D, The ONLY thing childish about this response was your words! Lets look at this point-by-point, shall we?

Pat you start with this comment... "That some scientists have been wrong does not indicate that jj is wrong." That's true of course, but like them he COULD be wrong and that's what I meant.
====================================================================
Next Pat you state: "As well, even I can tell you that your example is confused. First of all, you have stated it universally, but since not every dinosaur was a predator, your statement is incorrect."

I guess I give you to much credit sometimes Pat. Anyone with an ounce of intelligence (even most children) know, not every dinosaur was a predator. I didn't believe I needed to state the obvious. But for your sake I'll clarify, These previous statements of mine about dinosaurs ONLY APPLIES to who were predatory.

Pat continued to comment on dinosaurs by stating "Second, I doubt that anyone really thinks that the great big dinosaurs went running and leaping about. That's the trouble with false generalizing."

Once again it was a commensense type of thing Pat, the statement applied to those dinosaurs to whom it fit. In typical Objectivist fashion you attack anything you can instead of addressing the spirit of the post. To end all this childishness on YOUR part let me rephrase so YOU'LL undestand what everyone already did. At one time scientists thought ALL dinosuars were big, lumbering, brutes, but now they say some were large, swift, intelligent hunters! Is that simple enough?

I was trying to point out that scientists make errors and as I assume your mentor real jj does on occasion as well.
====================================================================
Now Pat you say: "Third, theories about dinosaur speed are still controversial."

As are DBT's!
====================================================================
Finally Pat you continue to try and muddy the view with this comment: "Fourth, part of the controversy is in whether dinosaurs were cold-blooded or not."

I know that Pat, but fail to see how it applies unless you're still talking about the dinosaur's speed factor.
