Night-G…. Total coincidence. Agnes (or actually Tony) is responsible for using the word “giant” and also, for extrapolating way too much from a small bone fragment….which in her case is a bit of rock, anyway.I mentioned dinosaurs because I’ve seen displays of tiny dinosaur bones accompanied by similarly wild (to my mind) extrapolation.
In fact, more recent researchers have postulated far different creatures from the museum re-creations of my girlhood.
I don’t know anybody better at wild extrapolation than Agnes…I figure if the Cleveland Museum of Natural History can get away with it, she may as well take a shot, too.
