T-REX Soft tissue found

Page 4 - Seeking answers? Join the AnandTech community: where nearly half-a-million members share solutions and discuss the latest tech.
So... if humans re-introduce T-rex's, we will have to become their predators in order to control them, or else T-rex's (like all other forms of life) will reproduce and spread as far as they can. And I have this feeling that T-rex's and humans won't get along too well.
I don't think the T-Rex could stand up to say, a flight of Apache gunships. Hell, I'd glady go into the Army to learn to fly the Apache to be a t-rex rancher 😀

Of course, worst case scenario is we bring the T-Rex back to life, only to find out it carries some uber-form of salmonilla and causes a massive plague.
 
If they can be cloned I expect everyone will want to have one as a pet, singlehandedly rendering the canine watch dog industry obsolete, while sending home burglary levels to alltime lows.

Because the whole idea of "millions" of years is a falicy, but that's a whole nother conversation. 🙂
Oh my dear fscking lord.

How can you sleep at night thinking that the universe or even that rock over there is only a couple thousand years old?

It makes my head hurt. There are trees that are alive and over 4,000 years old.

Gah!

lol

Makes sense. Probably some that got started right after the flood.

If;

1) evolution is in fact false and populations/genes are forever unchangeable after creation

and

2) a global flood did in fact happen after creation


Then why are there such things as fresh water fish?

It will probably take a few years to manipulate their genes and create dwarf versions.

Should probably breed their agressiveness out first, too.

Here's a better one..

If there was a global flood.. Where did all the water come from?

Where did it all go?

Space? Wait, no... God?

Methinks MSNBC has been had.

Unless, of course, Prof. Schweitzer has found another amazingly well-preserved T. Rex.<<<

I let my fiancee read the article and she's quite interested (she does DNA extraction/sequencing in a lab here on campus). She also mentioned that Jack Horner isn't just a paleontologist....he's thepalentologist.

Icecaps?
there isn't enough water to cover the globe in the icecaps. hell, if the north icecap melted the sea levels wouldn't even rise at all because that ice's volume is already accounted for (it floats).

Upheaval of the ocean floor due to volcanic activity. Volcanic activity seems to be a favorite tool of God. It saved the Jews.

I didn't say that there was no such thing as evolution however fish can survive great variances in salinity. There are also many species of fish that live in both salt and fresh. Are the genes of people who live at very high altitudes significantly different? Polluted areas?

My point is that.. the Earth doesen't gain or lose water. There's a fixed ammount here on the planet.

From what I could read, you had a bunch of scientists misrepresenting Schweitzer's work to evidence that dinosaurs aren't millions of years old. It wasn't Schweitzer and Horner that were doing it.
