I don't understand much either. Except... it seems these guys aren't 
looking for a best friend to live with forever, but just a babe to hang 
out with for a few months. I would ask, how many of these social geniuses 
are happily ensconsed in serious relationships that work after using this 
method to decide on compatability?

I like dinosaurs, as long as they're not purple and singing too-cute songs.

But Anil, dinosaurs do not seem terribly compatible with the way this
dating game thing is run. Dinosaurs actually want to become friends, to
care, to learn about and from the other person. The game seems more
centered on seeing what you can get and how fast.
