Shouldn't have shadowed my beloved Weekly Reader. LOVED the days we read that in class out loud to each other.

... the reason they went extinct was because an asteroid had slammed into the earth and made the planet uninhabitable for them.

If they had not gone extinct, it may have been dinosaurs instead of mammals that eventually evolved to become intelligent and invent technology.
