Evidence of the big event is being found in the form of individuals who died from the impact directly

Awesome.

Within two minutes of slamming into Earth, the asteroid, which was at least six miles wide, had gouged a crater about eighteen miles deep and lofted twenty-five trillion metric tons of debris into the atmosphere. Picture the splash of a pebble falling into pond water, but on a planetary scale. When Earth’s crust rebounded, a peak higher than Mt. Everest briefly rose up. The energy released was more than that of a billion Hiroshima bombs, but the blast looked nothing like a nuclear explosion, with its signature mushroom cloud. Instead, the initial blowout formed a “rooster tail,” a gigantic jet of molten material, which exited the atmosphere, some of it fanning out over North America. Much of the material was several times hotter than the surface of the sun, and it set fire to everything within a thousand miles. In addition, an inverted cone of liquefied, superheated rock rose, spread outward as countless red-hot blobs of glass, called tektites, and blanketed the Western Hemisphere.

Scientists have uncovered what they believe is the first fossil linked to the catastrophic asteroid event that wiped out the dinosaurs.

They have described the dinosaur leg as "stunningly preserved" and it even has skin still attached to it.

The leg is among a group of remains that were found at the Tanis fossil site in North Dakota, in the US, and offers more insight into what happened when the dinosaur's reign ended 66 million years ago.
 
Desh and Dutch are dinosaurs. Other than being brain dead they are both still kicking a little bit. Barely,.....but a little. Hopefully nobody digs them up many years from now. Some things are soooooooooo insidious they need to remain buried forever. :laugh:

I'd like to see a feathered Raptor. :)

Half an hour later, DePalma discovered a large feather. “Every day is Christmas out here,” he said. He exposed the feather with precise movements. It was a crisp impression in the layer of mud, perhaps thirteen inches long. “This is my ninth feather,” he said. “The first fossil feathers ever found at Hell Creek. I’m convinced these are dinosaur feathers. I don’t know for sure. But these are primitive feathers, and most are a foot long. There are zero birds that big from Hell Creek with feathers this primitive. It’s more parsimonious to suggest it was a known dinosaur, most likely a theropod, possibly a raptor.” He kept digging. “Maybe we’ll find the raptor that these feathers came from, but I doubt it. These feathers could have floated from a long way off.”
 
While Lenin read a book on Marx, the quartet practiced in the park, and we sang dirges in the dark, the day...the music died.
 
If Desh REALLY want to see a dinosaur all she's gotta do is look in the damn mirror.

Were they there?

Why are there human cave paintings of dinosaurs? That "66 million years ago" is highly suspect.

Truthfully your whole post was pretty cool up until that part. How the fuck do they know that all dinosaurs everywhere were wiped out at the same time and that it was 66 million years ago?

I thought science was supposed to be scientific. There's nothing scientific about speculation like that.

If the world was really that old, we'd be miles deep in bones everywhere. Dinosaur and every other living thing that ever was.

Not sure if Lenin, or Lennon. Would have to ask Don.

Being that's official, I guess Lenin it is.
