i still dont get the gravity aspect of EE fully, but repeatedly every couple of years there emerges a Palaeontologist scratching his head over some part of dino function in regular gravity.

Did you find peer-reviewed papers about "dinosaur mating"? I'm really curious to read one of them.

no, I ran out of resources from my trip to geology. Back to neuro, and I just got acceptance today by a sympathetic journal editor (at last)... So guess no more geology for a while... but perhaps i might come across some insights into dino nervous systems, as they are in the clade craniata that i produce models for.

the first aspect would be axon propagation. if axon propagation is soliton then those dinos must had really slow nervous pulses under regular gravity. Anyway not got ideas for that just now, but there are new databases being produced by the genome center on what axon types were where going back a billion years. each type has different transmission rates.

BTW..the researcher who raises the issue about the image above is referenced in the news article itself.
