Ah-ha. And re-reading it now makes a delightful amount of sense. It means something to me too... I just turned 20 - sort of the final key locking away the last glimmers of childhood. So I'm really missing all the things I loved as a little kid - and this brought back a lot. They weren't sure "what killed the dinosaurs" when I was little - but now we know - Permian volcano and K-T asteroid (if I remember correctly). I miss watching the shows where scientists would argue out their theories about it. At any rate... thanks.
