Paper Dinosaurs
The benefactors are afraid to take a chance on Dr. Adam Kirschner, with good reason. He’s safe, almost benign. With so much money being recouped on television appearances, why go with a middle-aged guy that can’t even dye his hair because he’s bald? His theories are logically sound, but boring. Give me shock value. Give me a “Vegetarian T-Rex.” For what it’s worth, I recommend the board not fund Dr. Kirschner’s dig. His blandness is a threat to paleontologists looking to get further funding for their own sites. In a world of Kardashians and Ancient Aliens, Dr. Kirschner is extinct.
