I was teaching a couple of 11 year olds here in Japan last week and one of them asked me what the word dinosaur meant. I was trying to explain it to them and then referenced Jurasic Park, which was met with blank stares. It may as well have been some obscure black and white film with no sound from the early days of cinema. I'm only 32 and don't ever really feel old, but damn. I didn't even stop to think how long ago that movie came out.
