What, no Jurassic Park reference?

Paleontologists have recovered soft tissue from a t-rex. I don't really have anything to add to this, other than: awesome!

As the article mentions, this has the potential to solve some huge questions about dinosaurs. It's not likely to produce any tyrannosaurus clones, though, which is a shame (how would environmentalists feel about reintroducing a species that went extinct 65 million years ago?).

On a side note, I applaud the article for avoiding the obvious Jurassic Park reference, although the choice of a Sears commercial reference is curious.
