agreed ...
and tks for this funny and clearing ref., now I can more easely explain the confusion to my own kid when going to the museum.

Paleonthology is a great science for this, as it's so young, it's also so easy to show how the scientific process is prone to errors and sociological effects. Here in bxl we have the chance to have an historical room with some reconstitution of the discovery of a herd of iguanodon during the 19th century, in a coal mine, with technology at hand at the time. Its nice to show how we are small facing both nature and knowledge aquisition. (we are still comparing bones by hands and drawings ...)
