"Look at those scientists. Look at their faces. Seriously who is gonna believe them with faces like that?" Donald Trump.

I tweeted yesterday I believe the Trump wave is cresting.

It's not cresting. It is being combed over.

Looks like a very happy group. Congrats to them on their discovery.

I have not seen much promotion of this story, I would think that those who want to encourage women to enter STEM fields that this would be more widely celebrated.

They are all wearing Hawaiian shirts with naked dudes under their jumpsuits.

Can't say they didn't learn from other peoples mistakes.

These fine ladies were a least four degrees separated from the splunking discoverers, who contacted a geologist who contacted the paleontologist who sent out an international call for field excavators who could squeeze through the 7" wide entrance to the burial chamber. No surprise they were all women. Just saying.
