POPSWhat Dinosaurs Really Looked Like - sort of... Most dinosaurs are known only from their bones, which are seldom found joined together as they would be in real life. Growing up I often lamented the problem of knowing how dinosaurs looked. After all, we find their bones fossilized and fragmented. Although it is easy enough to accurately reconstruct the individual bones, but since they are often found in jumbled dumps, it is virtually impossible to accurately reconstruct how they all fit together without a lot of subjective guesswork. A lot of times they can't even tell which bones come from which dinosaurs. Now, I know that lately the National Geographic Society has been pulling Discovery-Chanel-league stunts of leaping ahead of the facts to promote splashy and unverified history, but this is still a major leap forward. We may not know what color they were, but we are one step closer!

POPS'Being stared at was all I ever knew' In 1993, Paul Tessier, the "grandfather" of cranio-facial surgery, performed a massive procedure on him in Paris to bring his eyes closer together and lower his eyebrows. Before the operation, Adam overheard Tessier saying to his anaesthetist in French, "We're entering a patch of fog without a compass."
