Sorry, I must have missed something... what happened? 

 

Edit: also, I think you probably have the wrong subforum, this one is for donations of scientific interest that forum members make to a museum or research center.

Pete has spent his two years in the pokey.  He has done his duty whether you agree or disagree with his so called crime.

Of course he should.

 

If you're at the Tucson show please go meet him at the Tucson City Center venue.  He's super nice and more than willing to take the time to address your questions.  You will leave being impressed.

I’ve heard of Pete Larson several times, but I never heard of him getting in any trouble for something... anyone have a link to an article or something so I can read what happened? I’m curious to find out :)

There is a documentary called "Dinosaur 13" that talks about it.  Hint: the dinosaur fossils in question are the famous 'Sue' the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

Sure, not trying to, just starting a discussion on a paleontologist 

The warning was for other people, who were making comments that just weren't pertinent to the conversation. ;) 

We get enough of that buffalo chip everywhere on the internet. We don't need it to mess up our little oasis of calm. :)

His book “Rex Appeal” is really good. I’ve never had the good fortune to meet Pete but I’ve talked to his brother Neal a few times. He seems like a stand up fella also.

Pete is a great guy. I make it a point to speak to him every year in Tucson. He has helped me identity a few fossils too.
