Doesn't actually fit in my fantasy ficton, sadly. A wondrous conceit, though. Consider it proclaimed the vernacular name for <em>Anurognathus</em> in our world forevermore! Also, I'm sure I can come up with <em>something</em> in the novel... At dinner tonight my pal Larry suggested I call the critter Sarasaurus.

Also, I’m sure I can come up with something in the novel…

To better appreciate those, check out the larger image <strong><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:AnurognathusDB.jpg" rel="nofollow">here</a></strong>.

A <em>very</em> different book. I'm not saying it wouldn't be an <em>interesting</em> book (I especially like the idea of a <em>Triceratops</em> named Spike) but it would be ... different. Basically, I want <em>Anurognathus</em> and his little pals as chrome. Shiny up the joint. In other news: coffee good. That would be a different book, Ann. A very different book.

Basically, I want Anurognathus and his little pals as chrome. Shiny up the joint.

In other news: coffee good.

Would she be assisted by a Triceratops named Spike, or a reformed mosquito named Angel? I need more coffee.
