united states of america, in a free country. in order to ensure this dinosaur could be carefully packed up, we helped. it was pretty clear they didn t know what they were doing. these people didn t know anything. i mean most of these guys hardly go out in the field at all. what do they know about preparing a fossil or packing it or anything. the lar sons were trying to do a little bit negotiating, puts you under lock and key at our place to prevent damage. i said, you just tell me and that fossil won t go anywhere. it s not like it s going to disappear in a brief case. that request was denied. i mean crime scene tape around a t-rex discovery. have you ever? the ten year long dispute went to trial resulting in jail time for one of the paleontologists and sue was auctioned off for $8 million and is on display in chicago. joining me now to talk about
