I don't know if I sent you this one or one similar.  Anyway, it is
interesting and kind of funny....
 
According to San Diego Natural History Museum:
>
> If you can stand one more creation museum-related tale...there is a
> Creation Evidences Museum near the Paluxy River dinosaur tracks at Glen
> Rose, Texas. It is run by a reverend and is notorious for having
> everything misidentified (mammoth tooth identified as the ribcage of a
> baby saber-tooth cat, etc.). There is a picture of Stephen J.
> Gould posing near it in a Natural History article a few years ago.
> Anyway, the rev showed up at the vertebrate paleo labs at the University
> of Texas a few years ago with a fossil fish tooth he had found in the
> dinosaur tracks area and made everybody's life miserable for the next few
> months claiming that he had found the first confirmed human tooth in a
> dinosaur track, which fits their chronology. He also said that we had
> confirmed his identification, which we hadn't. UPI, AP, all the media
> picked up his story but not our corrections. If you pick up the 51st
> anniversary issue of Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine, March 1992, you

> based on our run-in with this guy. Some of us are VERY thinly disguised.

> I guess what bothered me most about this, and bothers me about the
