If you like DS and want to have a fun  on a Facebook page that is open to all forms of DS and doesn't allow childish behavior like some groups; come on over to DIAESD! You do have to ask to be invited and I will approve you.

Our paper had an article about this on Saturday.  I was thinking of posting about it, then saw this thread.  It included a picture of the skull, but I couldn't really make out what was what.  Here's the link to the article, but I was disappointed.  Often newspaper articles on the web have colored pictures or more pictures than the original newspaper article.  This one doesn't seem to have included the picture at all!
