Not really dinosaur related, but interesting... There was an article on BBC News yesterday about the melting permafrost in Siberia - very bad in terms of global warming, obviously, but the article pointed out that one side effect of this was that a large number of mammoth bones were being discovered (and possibly other remains of the same period as well, but mammoths seemed to be the focus).
It sort of ruined the excitement I felt at seeing these amazing mammoth bones on TV, knowing that their discoery was due to global warming.
