        Strange Science: The Rocky Road to Modern Paleontology and Biology

The List has unearthed another of those wonderful websites created by a
knowledgeable non-academic. Michon Scott has designed a thoroughly
researched and documented site dealing with a topic which has undoubtedly
been considered by many of the List's gentle members.

"Ever wonder how people figured out there used to be such things as
dinosaurs? Curious about how scientists learned to reconstruct fossil
skeletons? The knowledge we take for granted today was slow in coming, and
along the way, scientists and scholars had some weird ideas. This Web site
shows some of their mistakes, provides a timeline of events, gives
biographies of a few of the people who have gotten us where we are today,
and lists resources you can use to learn more."- from the website

Dig your way to this well designed site for enlightening information and
fascinating illustrations at:
