I'm sure that the upcoming obituaries will address the many contributions
and accomplishments of Dale A. Russell.  Of course his dinosauroid model
made headlines, but that was just another manifestation of his ability to
see the =E2=80=9Cbig picture.=E2=80=9D  I=E2=80=99d encourage anyone unfami=
liar with Dale Russell
to go to the university library and get two books in particular: A Vanished
World, and An Odyssey In Time. He used a multidisciplinary approach to
understand dinosaurs and their world, and wrote about it in an entertaining
manner.
