One hundred dinosaur sculptures were displayed at numerous locations in Pittsburgh over the summer as part of The Carnegie Museum of Natural Historys DinoMite Days program. Serendipity brought the dinosaur sculpture named "Petrolosaurus" to the Shadyside home of associate professor of chemistry Bruce Armitage, pictured here. The dinosaur depicts the origins and chemical structures of fossil fuels. We've written a few appropriate captions but challenge you all to come up with something better. Submit your alternatives to either Nicole Reading (nreading@andrew.cmu.edu) or Bruce Armitage (army@andrew.cmu.edu) the best submitted captions will be recognized at next year's retreat (along with favorite definitions for knedels).
