    Who is credited with having coined the term 'dinosaur'
    according to one of the geeks in our office it was Sir Richard Owen in the 1840's.
    He started giving me an explanation about what the guy really wanted to say, - but I turned off... sheesh how can anybody be so exited by something that's been dead for thousands of years.

    Correct. I can recommend 'The Dinosaur Hunters' by Deborah Cadbury as a good read. There's an interesting story behind the fascination with things long dead

    Read "Angels & Demons" first, also by Dan Brown.

    I've been looking for a decent read,

    OK, next question,

    Who is reported to have ordered the building of the wooden horse in the trojan war?
