I spent a lovely afternoon today with my ten year old son at the Museum of
Natural History in New York. This display of a pachycephalasaurus -- an
alien-looking, dome headed dinosaur -- caught my eye. If you can't see the
attached photos, the signage says: "we cannot be sure how
pachycephalasaurus used their skull caps, becuase theories about the
behaviors of extinct animals cannot be tested." So are theories about
extinct animal behaviors "science"?
