FRYER FEATURE: When extinct isn’t

Beware all those doomsday prophets.Have they been right in your experience?Remember the coming ice age and the population bomb predicted in the 60’s and 70’s.Food shortages and starvation models; we’re all gonna die! Best sellers?Peak oil? That’s another one.

I just couldn’t buy all those experts who kept saying the earth had hit its limit on petroleum.But then came the fraccers and technology to visually see the abundance, and more science that poses the earth may still be creating what we’ve always called “fossil fuels.”

And now word that an extinct bird; a species of rail, one that went extinct has now evolved into existence again.Say what?Now this bears some more investigation.And I wonder, will dragon eggs come again?
