They are beautiful huge trees...and powder produced from their fruit is extremely healthy. They look similar to Ents in the LOTR except they don't talk or walk.
Weak streak as of late, I am grateful for the 6 though. How I confused Doris Day with Dorothy Day can probably only be explained by the fact that I'm in need of a coffee
I don't like the archaeopteryx one. All birds are dinosaurs and archaeopteryx is simply a transitional fossil between non-avian and avian dinosaurs. I know that it's a simplification but being correct and specific would not even make the question harder as most people, even those who couldn't care less about paleontology, would still understand what it means. Just a thought.
"All birds are dinosaurs" is a strange claim made even more strange by the scientific consensus that dictates we must call them that. "Dinosaur" was coined by Sir Richard Owen in 1841 to describe a group of extinct reptiles, and means "terrible lizard." Birds are not lizards, or reptiles, by definition. But for evolutionary purposes we have put them into the natural group Reptilia and call them dinosaurs. I'm sorry but my family's chickens are not terrifying lizards.
