-->-- '''[[PungeonMaster Mr Freeze]]''', ''Film/BatmanAndRobin''[[note]]It was widely thought for decades that the dinosaurs went extinct from a gradual cooling of the climate, but by the time the film came out, it had been found that dinosaurs had lived in arctic conditions and that the likelier cause was the sudden, catastrophic results of a massive meteorite.[[/note]]

->'''''Okay''', but the fossil record shows you're about twice as large as a real [velociraptor], so... And I won't even mention that all raptor species are known to be feathered. Or that all of them died out '''millions''' of years '''before''' T-rex appeared, so you don't know '''what''' they sound like. Y'know, this isn't even my field? I picked it up from the Discovery Channel. This is stuff even '''children''' know.''

->''"The truth is that the dinosaurs had been dead for over a week before the first human came along, probably in the form of Bob Dole. Yet most Americans firmly believe that humans and dinosaurs once coexisted. This misconception arose from the many absurdly inaccurate fictional depictions of caveman life, such as the TV cartoon show TheFlintstones, in which the Flintstones own a pet dinosaur named Dino. But paleontologists, who can determine the age of fossils with a high degree of accuracy using a technique called 'carbon dating,' have known for many years that 'Dino' is actually another character wearing a costume. 'We think it's Barney,' the paleontologists announced recently, 'but we can't say for sure until we get another government grant.'"''

->''"At age nine or so, in the Catskills at one of those innumerable summer camps with an Indian name, I got into a furious argument with a bunkmate over the old issue of wether humans and dinosaurs ever inhabited the earth together. We agreed --bad, bad mistake-- to abide by the judgment of the first adult claiming to know the answer, and we bet the camp currency, a chocolate bar, on the outcome. We asked all the counselors and staff, but none had ever heard of a brontosaurus. At parents' weekend, his came and mine didn't. We asked his father, who assured us that of course dinosaurs and people lived together; just look at Comics/AlleyOop. I paid --and seethed-- and still seethe."''

-> ''" In Genesis 1:30 God gives ‘green herb’ to every creature to eat and so there were no predators. When a curious museum visitor asks, why exactly T. rex had six-inch long serrated teeth, '''the guides go on to explain that T. rex used his big teeth to open coconuts.''' "''
