| The 'opteryx also had teeth, a straight boned tail, a flat sternum and belly ribs, unlike birds. When you say bone structure, how do you mean? The light-weight, hollow bones? The pterodactyl also has these types of bones, and it most certainly is a reptile.
Besides, most paeleontologists don't point out the opteryx as the missing link, the opteryx is a fairly unique one off type, it's closest relative the compsugnathus is still pretty damned distant. They usually point towards the dromeosaurs, (Velociraptor, Deinonychus and Utahraptor) as the linking family between dinosaurs and birds.
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
