    Yeah guy's life story and rivalry is fucking amazing. Kind of embodies America better than any of our other national legends or whatever. Just two petty scientists BSing and sometimes scamming their way to fame out of spite. Not that they didnt do genuine paleontology

    Great, even-handed history of them https://youtu.be/nX0fZgPfB9s?t=638

    I adore early paleontology
