    OK, not exactly, but they have exposed evidence that dinosaurs and birds are genetically related

    see:

    Somebody should do a movie in which cloned dinosaurs eat people in revenge for 6000 years of

    consuming soft boiled eggs for breakfast.

    Now if only they can develop a chicken the size of a T Rex. Think of the Buffalo wings! the omelettes!

    scientists have believed for some time now that there is a relationship between dinosaurs and modern birds, as they found feathers on some late fossils. so the scientists made a hypothesis: if they are related, and evolutionary theory is indeed accurate, then we should be able to see a genetic simalarity between birds and dinos when we get our hands on some dino dna.

    lo' and behold you sinners!

    There's a karmic irony here. T-Rex a super predator at the very top of the food chain. Chickens: 20 million slaughtered every day in the US alone for food.

    Even if evolution is true, I am not sure I believe birds are descended from dinosaurs.

    I think it is entirely possible that similar species can exist without one actually having evolved from the other one.

    T-Rex was pretty smart. It got real small and found something that would feed them. Of course they get eaten. But, everything gets eaten sooner or later. The goal in evolution is survival to reproduce. Hooray for the T-rex/chicken. They are a real success story.

    I don't think the announcement really said that chickens evolved from the T'Rex. They chose to use the chicken for maximum press release attention. What they have found is that this dinosaur appears to have belonged to the avian species and is of the same family as the chicken. They could have just as well said, parakeets, pigeons, buzzards or hummingbirds.

    Brother Clam,

    I guess paybacks ARE a bitch.
