You missed this relevant quote:
"Conventional wisdom among paleontologists states that when dinosaurs
died and became fossilized, soft tissues didn't preserve - the bones
were essentially transformed into "rocks" through a gradual
replacement of all organic material by minerals. New research by a
North Carolina State University paleontologist, however, could
literally turn that theory inside out.
Good for you. Now you see that science is evolutionary and not dogmatic like
religion.
"Dr. Mary Schweitzer, assistant professor of paleontology with a joint
appointment at the N.C. Museum of Natural Sciences, has succeeded in
isolating soft tissue from the femur of a 68-million-year-old
dinosaur. Not only is the tissue largely intact, it's still
transparent and pliable, and microscopic interior structures
resembling blood vessels and even cells are still present.
It was not like that when excavated. The specimen was prepared in a lab.
These are the facts.
It is also a fact that you are willfully ignorant.
