The Musings will be a bit quiet for the next week or so while I move continents. Normal (ish) service to resume soon. In the meantime I’ll keep my head down (behind Zenhyuanopterus).

Quick, while Dave’s out everyone leave nonsensical comments…. I’m not sure which looks more stunned, Mr. Hone or Mr. Zenhyuanopterus?
I’ve just been wondering what mysterious place you are heading to…
All will be revealed once I’m installed (and the contract signed). Give it a week. Hope to post in the meantime, but not about the move…
Bugger, you’re still here.
Indeed! ;-)
Good luck with the move!
Thanks!
Oh, you mean, Zhenyuanopterus. Still as Hone spelling errors go this one’s not too bad, all the right letters, but not necessarily in the right order… In any case, it doesn’t matter how its spelt as its still a junior synonym of Boreopterus.
Actually I cut and pasted that from the internet to make sure I would spell it right! I can’t really win can I?
Dave, I agree it’s probably just Boreopterus (even Lu seems to think so) but is that actually published yet?
