Default EEK - wonderful gift from the Gods for dino-Henry

http://it.sohu.com/2004/01/22/82/article218728281.shtml

I can't believe it, I will fly to China for a month in June to study Psittacosaurs - and yesterday THIS crops up - a nest with 37 embryonic Psittacosaurs - and it is now in a museum I am scheduled to visit anyways!

Hooray!

I thought you were Geo-Henry, not Dino-Henry []
