Hey Dan W!!! I disargree with you. I love dinosaurs better than you!!!!!
from ????, age ????, ??????, ??????, ?; December 9, 2001

I think that T-rex is a scavenger just like Jack Horner said, but it is also a hunter and can scare a herd of triceratops or hadrosaurs, and the fact that a single T-rex can kill, unlike those of hyenas that need a pack to kill. A Triceratops will not even try to attack a T-rex, it will risk injury or may kill itself, I think the use of armors are only for defensive purposes. Ankylosaur can protect itself to just one Trex, but if two is present, it is doomsday for ankylosaur.

But I'm doing the next episode for the othys and torvosaur thing some people have read.

Yes, the really hard big Al game. I've played it, and now I really don't want to be an allosaur!

You like look at the scoreboard at the end, and people with names like Jim have had like 80 matings or something. But I keep getting killed by scorpions of the kind that you step on by accident and squash, or my own mother. Prey that you can actually eat is too scarse in the beginning! I keep seeing things like:

You where killed by the centipede, probably because it was about 890,074,605,00 times feircer than you! Be more carefull next time!

It's just too hard. Accurately hard, though, I think. Survival of the fittest, and people with names like "Benton" and "Bob" seem to be the fittest. It's quite strange.

Internet gremlins are people who pretend to be other people. Honkie Tong, for instance, was a victim. Someone put messages up as Honkie Tong, even though he wasn't, so he didn't have the right to do so. Also, the messages he put up as (not just Honkie, T - Master and maybe a few more people where victims;) where strange, or offensive. "Gremlin" is the word used to describe these people.

Weird skin? No, it's not weird! They're just adapted to their enviroments! Anyway, not very many skin impressions have been found. Hadrosaurs and ankylosaurs mainly. Ankylosaurs had hard, tough, bony hide with spikes and studs in it, for protection against predators. Most others I guess had smooth, scaly skin, and some had feathers.

What are some specific eating habits of Acrocanthosaurus?
What was the anatomy of Acrocanthosaurus?
from Adrian H, age forgot, Atlanta, Atlanta, USA; December 5, 2001"

Here's some info I got off this site. If you want really sticky anatomy, I'm talking wow how advanced, just ask.

(pronounced AK-roh-CAN-thuh-SAWR-us) Acrocanthosaurus (meaning "high-spine lizard" because of the spikes growing out of its spine) was a theropod (a bipedal, meat-eating dinosaur) that was roughly 30-40 feet (9-12 m) long and weighed about 2300 kg. It had a big head (4.5 foot (1.4 m) long skull) and 68 thin, sharp, serrated teeth. It had 17 inch (43 cm) long spikes extending from its vertebrae along the neck and tail that may have formed a thick, fleshy sail on its back. It had powerful arms and each hands had three fingers, each equipped with long, sickle-like claws. It weighed roughly 2-4 tons (2-3.5 tonnes). Acrocanthosaurus lived during the early Cretaceous period , roughly 115 million-105 million years ago in the tropics near sea level (in what is now Oklahoma, Texas, and Utah, USA). It is known from incomplete skeletons and teeth and was named by paleontologists Stovall and Langston in 1950.

Acrocanthosaurus lived during the early Cretaceous period, roughly 115-105 million years ago, in the tropics near sea level.

When Acrocanthosaurus Lived: Acrocanthosaurus lived about 110 million years ago, during the mid-Cretaceous period*I THINK THIS IS CENOMANIAN. TIM, OR BRAD, HELP ME OUT.*. Other dinosaurs that lived in North America during that time were the meat-eating Deinonychus, the armored plant-eaters Sauropelta and Nodosaurus, and the fast, long tailed, quadrupedal hypsilophodontid Tenontosaurus. It hunted all of these. But not Sauropseidon, although the two lived in the same place at the same time, sauropseidon was a massive brachiosaur.
