Not sure if anyone here is into dinosaurs, but I thought this was kind of cool.
Did dino's have feathers or not?

A lot of dinosaur fossils have been found with feathers, but at this point they've figured out that many dinosaurs where no different than birds except for their teeth.

I don't believe in dinosaurs. Not that I'm a creationist or anything, but twenty-five foot long lizards? Come on, that's got to be made up.

Come on, that's got to be made up.Everything was bigger back then because there was a lot more oxygen. The dragonflies could get about 6 feet long. A dragonfly that big in today's atmosphere would never get off the ground.

Why would the % of oxygen in the air have anything to do with wing lift potential?

Stegosaurus all the way man. After that it's Pharasuraluphus (don't know if I spelled that right). Anyone who loves sauropods is a nerd.;)

Not bad, not bad at all...
But I'd have to go with Ankylosaurus as my second choice.

I mean, that dude is just asking you to try something stupid.
(Or the Pteranodon. If you wanna go back a little further in time - the Dimetrodon was a pretty nice guy as well!)

I liked the flying ones too (can't think of their name off the top of my head).
Edit: Looking at your other post, I remember now it was the Pteranodon.
