A Title Much Cooler Than Anything on the Old Site
Posting three XKCD images in one post is a bit indulgent, but it *is* your birthday:

Bonus: their is still debate as to whether Bronotsaurus actually existed

The animals certainly existed; the problem is that two people gave their copy of that animal different names at the same time - and knew they were doing it.

"Apatosaurus" won out by The Rules for Naming Fossils. But I still use "Brontosaurus" for any of the big sauropods that I don't remember the right name offhand.
Maybe because I watched The Flintstones as a kid and still want to find that XL slab of Bronto ribs that tipped over Fred's car.

In century-old art, dinosaurs were shown as swamp-dwellers. But IRL they got along just fine in deserts and scrub areas.

Surprise your PCs the next time they venture into the subtropics. :devil:
