Yet another dino named "rex"

T-Rex should really Sue paleontologists already... This is a rather nondescript, kritosaur-like dino. http://www.sci-news.com/paleontology/science-rhinorex-condrupus-new-herbivorous-dinosaur-utah-02158.html

They use the suffix rex now just to try and make a discovery sound awesome. They don't seem to realise ALL new discoveries are awesome without using theatrical name tricks.
