That's interesting Diz, although I can't remember what I was doing last week, let alone 65 millions years ago! These scientists never cease to amaze me! Selamat Hari Raya to you too. :)

Hi Diz,

An interesting read and I agree with mingalabaya about how scientists can amaze us all without fail with their finds and yeah 65 million years ago at that. To think that the world was once upon a time, one piece. Wonder what it was called..United States?..he he.
