"Claims on the museum's Web site include that Noah took dinosaurs aboard his ark."

I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall watching Noah round up a pair of T-Rex's and herding them on board. The ark must have been the size of an aircraft carrier to get all those dinosaurs on board - how big are Brontosaurus? :-)
