    It's good to see the poorly understood tyrannosauoid family tree is starting to take shape. We've come a long way since thinking T.rex was descended from Allosaurus!

    So many questions.. Did it have feathers? What's it's relationship to Eotyrannus, Dilong Paradoxus, Guanlong etc? What name will they give it? Can't wait for more data to appear. :)

    Well, it's been published and guess what? It aint no T. rex ancestor. Heck, it's not actually a dinosaur at all!
