Tyrranosaurus Ostrich Lays an Egg

A series of strange events accompanied the ‘discovery’ of 70-million-year-old Tyrannosaurus rex in Montana.
The ‘scientist’ that made this discovery ‘Doctor’ Mary H. Schweitzer has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Communicative Disorders from Utah State University. She got a Certificate in Secondary Education and ‘Broadfield’ Science from Montana State University and a Ph D in Biology from Montana State University.
This Communicative Disorders expert went into what she calls a remote part of the ‘Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge’. The ’remote’ area is accessible by automobile, surrounds a man made lake and attracts over 200,000 visitors a year. That is where they uncovered the bones in the wildlife reserve by blasting them out with dynamite.
‘Doc’ Schweitzer ordered some of the bones broken in half so the helicopter could carry them away.
In Bozeman, Mt, Schweitzer inspected the damaged specimen before applying preserving chemicals and noticed unusual tissue fragments. She concluded fossilization had not completed over the past 70 million years.
She then had a scanning electron microscope examine the bone. ‘Doc’ Schweizeer announced the dinosaur's blood vessels to be "virtually indistinguishable" from those recovered from ostrich bones.
In the last ten years Montana has become a major producer of ostriches and has over 100 ostrich ranches. Bozeman isover 385 miles from the discovery point and deep in Ostrich ranch country.
In my opinion ‘Doc’ Schweizer may either be exhibiting a communicative disorder or may be the brunt of some fossilized Montana humor or may be committing fraud.
