Chronology challenged fans assail Spielberg for “slaughtering” Triceratops?

OT: Scorpions are master architects, according to new research - July 10, 2014 Excerpt: After trapping the wild large-clawed scorpions (Scorpio Maurus Palmatus) in Israel's Negev desert the researchers filled their burrows with molten aluminum to make replica casts. Once solidified, they were unearthed and analyzed by a 3-D laser scanner and software. The researchers found that the burrows followed a very sophisticated design, beginning with a short, vertical entrance shaft that flattened out a few centimeters below the surface into a horizontal platform. The burrows then turn sharply downwards, descending further below ground to form a dead-end chamber. This cool, humid chamber, where evaporation water loss is minimal, provides a refuge for the scorpions to rest during the heat of the day. The design was common to all the scorpion burrows studied,,, http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2014/07/140710161525.htm Images for 'molten aluminum insect' google search https://www.google.com/search?q=molten+aluminum+insect&client=firefox-a&hs=cJL&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=np&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=RYXCU9jtPMO2yASBqYLwCQ&ved=0CB4QsAQ&biw=1280&bih=611bornagain77
