Paleontology, Feb 1st, Period 7

On Tommy's desk are several bags of movie popcorn and cans of Coke for the students to grab as they come in.

"Easy class today, guys. We're just watching a movie. Unfortunately, that doesn't mean you're not gonna get away without a homework assignment. On Monday, I want you to come to class with one- or more, if you're feeling ambitious- complaint about the science of the movie."

Tommy pops in a DVD of Triassic Gardens, turns off the lights, and sits at his desk as the movie plays.

Janet signed in. She'd pout that there were no cookies if she weren't so cranky.

"Cloning dinosaurs?" asked Janet. She snorted. "Let's just start with the concept of retrieving viable strands of DNA from the Triassic era and move on to the concept of fusing them with modern amphibian DNA and then excepting something with more reptilian characteristics than amphibious."

Janet turned in a long, strongly-worded essay written while watching the movie about the concept of cloning, extracting viable DNA from a few rare specimens of creatures preserved in amber, reconstructing DNA properly, and a few extra notes on how amphibian DNA does not automatically produce reptilian characteristics in creatures cloned from it. There might be the occasional diagram of a DNA strand too. And a lot of exclamation points.

Kawalsky signed in and stole some of Rory's popcorn, even though there was plenty of non-Rory popcorn left.

"Mine!" Rory whined poutily.

"I think it's cool. I mean, sure, it's not going to be totally right. If it was, it wouldn't be fiction, and there'd be people out there right now cloning dinosaurs and putting them on islands. But they did a good job of making it kinda believable. I mean, in some universe it could work I guess. At least they didn't use the same old excuse of 'Hey dinosaurs, how'd you get them?' 'Magic!'"

"Is it true what the announcement said? That you were baked in a giant pizza? What flavor was it?"

"Why d'you think I took it? Popcorn tastes better when it's stolen."

Rory turned enormous sad blue eyes on him.

Signing in, Sharon eyed the popcorn, decided her teeth could stand the danger, and grabbed a bag and a soda.

"Cloning humans Cylons would be easier, wouldn't it?" Sharon threw a piece of pocorn at the screen. "Run, you idots!"

Kawalsky spat the popcorn back out into his hand and offered it back to Rory.
