Seeing a traveling exhibit of Sue the T-Rex was one of the redwoods that broke the camels back for me and the JW explanation of dinosaurs. Standing under that massive head and looking at that body about did it for me...and being able to hold actual dinosaur eggs. I went with another "sister" (who is now out), and we just looked at each other and knew we were lied to. It was sobering, and i think I actually cried.
Nice article. Those T-Rex's, very odd creatures...that head, those arms, that tail.
