Given that dinosaurs where generally more massive than current animals and there is a limit to bone loading, isn't possible that the diameter of the Earth has been greater in the past?

It was smaller walking home from the pub last night than it was walking to it.

Wasn't it an astringent liquid that Mums and Nannies dabbed tenderly upon cuts and bruises in the days before they called the air ambulence out for such things.

It caused one to have to stifle a wince. One wouldn't wish one's Mum to think one was a softee now would one.

I used to scream like a stuck pig which resulted in being gathered up unto the bosom parts and petted. But I was only 12.

I think Mathos's Mum must have used iodine.

But is the world shrinking? That's the question our antiseptic friend wishes us to address. I'm going for a yes. Buts its only a guess.

I vote for expansion. Inflation is always going to be with us.

Yeah! The world really is getting smaller--but I still wouldn't want to paint it.

That seems to settle it. Dinosaur bones too weak, spendy's observation, common sense, and not wishing to paint it suggets the world really is getting smaller. And inflation would need it to be hollow.
