AMNH loses cool points for not having a Spinosaurus skeleton and selling Ecospheres in their gift shop.
 
Looks like a great place to visit!
 
Cool pics, I love visiting museums. And good luck seeing a completed Spinosaurus skeleton. The only one to ever exist got destroyed when the Allies bombed Berlin during WW2

Jinkz is related to Edaphosaurus? Who would have thought?!
