New evidence for dinosaur catastrophe

An interesting story. But it seems like a rather large leap to the conclusions to me. A Triceratops may have been the last dinosaur standing, according to a new study that determined a fossil from Montana's Hell Creek Formation is "the youngest dinosaur known to science".....The discovery suggests dinosaurs did not gradually die out before 65 million years ago, but that they went suddenly extinct. So before this Triceratops there was some other dinosaur that was "the youngest dinosaur known to science" correct? So what makes this one suggest anything new that the previous one did not? IMO this... [More]

IMO it seems like we will never know what REALLY ended the dinosaurs long reign

God did, he needed space for the garden of Eden.

^ Ohhh you! -Shakes head- I guess now we can rule out the poisonous plant theory

My personal ignorance knows no bounds but I agree with Bane - I thought this was pretty much a done deal after the 1980 team figured out the iridium layer and proposed the KT boundary. I mean, I know it was speculative at the time but had since grown to the "accepted" status that a meteor strike in the Yucatan was the ELE. It seemed to me the article was a rehash despite the new find. Am I missing something? Nevermind, of course I am.

Well we know how quick the facts could change per researcher.

God did, he needed space for the garden of Eden. He would have been 64.994 millions years to early.

Well we know how quick the facts could change per researcher. So true. Hilariously, when Jacques Bergier mention it in the 1950's everyone and everybody laughed at him.

what is the cataclysmic event theyre talking about though

what is the cataclysmic event theyre talking about though From source in OP: "By studying the region's geological layers, the scientists can see how dinosaurs suddenly disappeared after the catastrophic event, which Lyson and many other experts believe was a meteorite strike that directly hit Earth at Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula."
