"New meat-eating dinos identified"

...is the headline of a story on the BBC website today. I haven't had time to read the story itself as I'm just off out to buy canned goods and bottled water so I can go into hiding from the new dinos. (dinosaurs and humans frolicking about the earth at the same time, it's like the Garden of Eden all over again!).

Wait a minute. Maybe the BBC is unable to make proper use of the English language.

Panic over folks, the BBC meant to say "Previously unknown meat-eating dinos identified". I guess my expectations of them were too high, given that they're a socialist institution.

Nice Socialism tag! I sense all BBC posts will have that.
