Yes, depending on how you define evolve. Humans share some dinosaur activities: https://www.google.com/search?q=dinosaur+on+bicycle&tbm=isch Well, I assume that "evolve" is a verb derived from the word "evolution" which seems to described as: evolution ~ noun - a process in which something passes by degrees to a different stage (especially a more advanced or mature stage) That's a good definition. If dinosaur evolution had not been interrupted by a falling asteroid, the next evolutionary step would have been for dinosaurs to be riding eBikes. Hmm... looks like the archeologists unearthed some prehistoric eBikes and couldn't figure out what to do with them: https://www.nps.gov/dino/learn/news/e-bikesallowed.htm Probably easier to sell them to visitors than to explain where they came from. -- Jeff Liebermann PO Box 272 http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Ben Lomond CA 95005-0272 Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558 |
