Did you know the dinosaurs might have been wiped out by a “super-hurricane” of sorts? Check out this little tidbit of information I dug up:

“Scientists have been trying to explain the extinction of dinosaurs for a long time. First it was a giant asteroid impact, which hurled vast clouds of dust into the stratosphere, causing a worldwide winter. The latest twist is that the asteroid now believed to have struck parts of the Gulf of Mexico heated large amounts of water to 50°C, much hotter than present oceans, and triggered giant “hypercanes”–hurricanes with near supersonic winds that also hurled vast quantities of debris into the stratosphere. ”

Would have made for a great Jurassic Park movie.

We are aware of our daylight savings time issue and I apologize for it. We’re tweaking our system and as soon as we’re done, the times should be updated correctly. I’ll post a follow-up when the process has been completed.

Thanks for your patience!
