RE: Random Japan #19 :: When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth
There are a few places off of I-75 where I have visited similar creations. It seems to me to be entirely possible that dinosaurs are a hoax.

Hoax is the wrong word. I think it is entirely possible that most of what we know about them is wrong. Hoax attributes malice where I think there was none. What we have instead is just over-enthusiastic scientists jumping to conclusions based on incomplete data. There is already a big divide between the latest thinking and what pop culture shows. Current thinking says many of the creatures were feathered, but even today in pop culture that is something you will never see. I suspect as we learn more that model will change yet more.
The Jurassic Park series tastes like intentional disinformation, and smells like part of a larger campaign. Maybe I just want to hate Hollywood.
haha I can understand that. There is much to hate about Hollywood. Most of what we see in the Jurassic Park series is not only false, but doesn't even follow any scientific theory, now or previous. But I don't think the intention was to mislead us. That was/is incidental. The main intention there was just to keep to the dinosaur stereotype that they perceive the public has and to make the most money as possible.
