COLD DARK ROOM

[Tidgy's Dad]

Not to intrude, but as I recall a dinosaur is defined as being a subset of the archosaurs with a pelvis that orients the hind legs vertically, beneath the body. I'm thinking an endothermic physiology is also a characteristic, but not sure on that but.

Intrude away, and welcome to The Cold Dark Room!
Grab an armadillo to sit on, help yourself to a coffee, fizzy drink or something a little stronger and chill. (it is a bit cold).
And have three points to begin.

Earwig of the moment: ARnold ARnold ARnold Rimmer he's also a fantastic swimmer and if you play your cards right he just might be coming home for DINner...

Hmmmmmm.

Afternoon, John!
No skeletons in my cellar, I'm afraid.
Only in my closet.

Good morning.
we're having a Christmas party here at work.
Code for: NO ONE will be working.
Suki let me sleep about 5 hours last night. So I'm feeling good.

Good morning, Ed!
Enjoy the party.
I guess Suki's gotta sleep sometimes, too.

Was anything ever mentioned again about the new moderator position?
You know, Adams job?

Hmmmmmmm.
That all seems to have gone quiet unless secret negotiations are underway.
If they are, it's not with me.
Told you, it's not going to happen.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Suki the finger eater

Makes you realize how small Suki is!
Tiny little thing.
Thumbelina.

Ho.ho.ho

I once read in a book about the amount of trees or vegetation that would have been required to create 1 gallon of gasoline. I don't remember the amount, but I remember being totally gobsmacked: it takes a LOT!!!!

Sorry, Bea, but I've got to correct you again.
Gasoline is made from petroleum which is mostly made from the bodies of algae and zooplankton (tiny animals) not trees and plants, which make coal etc.
I can't remember the figures, bit yes, it takes an awful lot of dead things to create a single gallon.

Fried Mars Bar and Kit Kat ?

just had 'em raw

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

If he did, I predict he'd be walking pretty oddly for a good while...just saying'...

ha de ha!
No, she doesn't get violent, just nasty and sulky which is worse.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

just had 'em raw

For shame!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Hello, folks!
How heartwarming to see so many people on here overnight and this morning!!
Hurraahh! for the Cold Dark Room.

Adam, you need NOT apologize for correcting me! I graduated from university in 1976! Although I majored in Zoology, I would HOPE that the Sciences advanced somewhat in 39 years!!!! (I wish it had been Unseen University, but, oh well! )
Thanks, as always, for the correct information!!!!

Science moves so quickly, and the latest advances in paleontology are almost impossible to keep up with.
i'm still getting used to a new geological period, the snowball earth stuff; fractal organisms and the reclassification of birds to being dinosaurs just for starters.
Jaws evolving from gills, lungs from the swim bladder and do you know why we've got colour vision ?

No, why?
