    The term 'grammar nazi' was invented to make people, who don't know their grammar, feel OK about being uneducated.

    I thought it meant fossilised dinosaur crap. In which case you'd find it wherever the dinosaur decided to leave it. Possibly next to a piece of fossilised dinosaur dunny roll?

    Coprolite is the scientific name for the fossilised excrement, feces or droppings of ancient animals.

    It can also be the definition of a copper lamp ha ha ha a h ROFL ha ha ha
    And continuing with the "ite" type questions. What is a Theolodite?

    Correct...a fossilised . Found in sedimentary rocks.

    Dont know if the dinosaurs had access to toilet paper..I imagine if they needed to wipe theyd just use the nearest furry mammal.

    Kris,

    Ive been following your posts with interest and Ive come to the conclusion that you either A. have a brain the size of a planet and know absolutely everything and about anything (in which case you should be banned from this forum) or B. you live next door a library.

    I guess its also possible that youre a geologist.

    OK - looks like it's my go.

    Back to the important stuff - trivia!

    In one of Hemingway's books, he writes about a character known as El Sordo. What does the name mean and what is the title of the book?
