The ornith/saurischian thing prob has something to do with the preceding sequence of letters.

David, you could try running your text through a spellchecker (although you’d have to ask an adult to add “Compsognathus” to the custom dictionary for you!).

You can’t be a regular reader. I’m not a good typist and a worse proof reader. I am at least consistent. I’ll go fix it.

I notice you regularly writing Compsoganthus instead of Compsognathus, I take this is just a typo?
