actually it can. in your example, i doubt there would be any change, however, if that stegosaurus died 5 miles east and was discovered by a man, say your neighbor, it may have changed you life entirely maybe inspiring you to be an archaeologists, that would have effected you life in major ways. the likely hood that an event many years removed would effect you is nearly mute. i believe that our actions are not under our control, however, since we are incapable of understanding the complexities that dictate our actions, essentially we do have free will, although it is truly just the illusion of.
