I studied geology last year at college, and an I didn't realise until
then that most geologists refutre the claim that a projectile from outer
space killed off the dinosaurs.  This is mainly because Palaeontological
evidence suggests that the dinosaurs were extinct by and large before
the event occurred.. and the theory was proposed by a physicist who had
little knowledge of geology..

Cheers,
Mel.
