Well, as I've said before on my blog, you can have all the information in the world in your head, but until it's published for your colleagues to see, it may as well not exist. I'm sure a lot of your colleagues saw similar problems, while others are more on the side of Toroceratops. But either way, now there is a paper (and data) to cite in future research.<br /><br />That's probably too rambly but hopefully you get my meaning. :-)Zachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08692080707969333711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3467242881996852098.post-53663999072583985542011-01-26T20:07:26.717-08:002011-01-26T20:07:26.717-08:00Thanks, Zach.

Nick Longrich had a very brief comment about this topic in his posted-but-unpublished manuscript on the animal from New Mexico, so he's probably officially "firsties" just in that regard. But, I think I'm the first to present an in-depth critique. And really, most of the points I raised in the paper had already been discussed in Q&A sessions at meetings, hallway talks, and over beverages. The paper is just a formality!Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16171447306687358664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3467242881996852098.post-27620780468648950712011-01-26T16:14:33.745-08:002011-01-26T16:14:33.745-08:00I thought it was a great article, not just because...I thought it was a great article, not just because of the invaluable description of the Nedoceratops skull, but also the criticism of Toroceratops--the first I've seen in print.Zachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08692080707969333711noreply@blogger.com
