MemberCompsognathusNov-17-2014 1:50 PMSo, I'm organizing an upcoming event. Myself and a few other members will be doing research on some of the most influential people in paleontology. But I don't mean the current guys like Horner or Larson, I mean the "originals." Here's the lineup...
Myself- Andrew Carnegie
Lord of the Spinosaurus- Ernst Stromer
Carnosaur- Henry Fairfield Osborn
Sci-Fi King- Edward Drinker Cope
Mr.Happy(?)- Barnum Brown
I do need two people to volunteer to take on Othniel Charles Marsh and Charles R. Knight.

MemberCompsognathusNov-17-2014 2:01 PMThis sounds very interesting, but may I have a bit more information? E.g. for what purpose should we collect information and will we make a presentation or something?
Keep in mind that many people have died for their beliefs; it's actually quite common. The real courage is in living and suffering for what you believe in. -Brom-

MemberCompsognathusNov-17-2014 2:03 PMYeah, at some point(when everything is gathered), we'll post about it one at a time. Just try and give all the other members a better understanding of the, as I put it earlier, "originals."

MemberCompsognathusNov-17-2014 2:05 PMI can take Charles R. Knight, if you want me too. But if Mr. Happy doesn't take Barnum Brown, I will. Sounds exciting!

MemberCompsognathusNov-17-2014 3:39 PMAlrighty then. Looks like Gojira has Knight(assuming Happy doesn't take Brown) and TK has Marsh.
Hope everyone enjoys the event.
