William wrote: I could address some of your other comments in your reply to me and I may do so later, but I feel I have to address your implication that either I or Ray Bradbury believe that mice were contemporaneous with dinosaurs.
William, If I implied, if what I wrote gave the impression, that I thought you believed mice and dinosaurs to be contemporaneous or was predicating my posting on such a belief on your part, then I apologize. I did not intend to imply such a thing or give such an impression. (What Mr. Bradbury thinks, on the other hand, is of very little concern. Fabulous writer though he is, he has occasionally shown a rather contemptuous attitude toward matters of scientific accuracy that leads me to believe that he wouldn't have a clue what kinds of mammals did or didn't show up before the dinosaurs died out, unless maybe he got it from Disney's film DINOSAUR.) --Dan'l
