So much for the Scientific Consensus.

Really bad example as there was no consensus.

An international team of palaeontologists, behavioural scientists and neurologists have re-examined brain size and structure in dinosaurs and concluded they behaved more like crocodiles and lizards.

In a study published last year, it was claimed that dinosaurs like T. rex had an exceptionally high number of neurons and were substantially more intelligent than assumed. It was claimed that these high neuron counts could directly inform on intelligence, metabolism and life history, and that T. rex was rather monkey-like in some of its habits. Cultural transmission of knowledge as well as tool use were cited as examples of cognitive traits that it might have possessed.

Nearly 97% of scientist agree that T-Rex was so stupid it could not even field a functional planetary defense system.

3% know that Fred forgot to properly torque that last bolt on the third stage that fateful Friday afternoon before liftoff.

Sadly, he never did get to enjoy that last round of drinks he was so looking forward to with his coworkers.

Even more regrettably, the attorneys at Saurus Saurus and Tops never got a chance to file what would have been the most profitable lawsuit in their firm's 50 million year history.
