Dig It!

Our friends, the creationists, will tell you there's no evidence for evolution. Red State Rabble suspects that's because they never poke their noses out of the Bible long enough to see any. Nevertheless, out in Wyoming's Morrison Formation, 150-million-year-old dinosaur fossils are "everywhere, like dandelions."

Hiding in plain sight. No wonder the creationists can't see it.

Don Hopey, of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has written an engaging feature on the University of Pittsburgh's new 4,700 acre Allen L. Cook Spring Creek Preserve. Although well known, it's never been fully explored. There's also an audio slideshow of scientists and students prospecting for dinosaur bones at the Cook Preserve in Wyoming.

A good read.
