The Text:

This week’s text is Welcome, spanning from pages 79 - 80.

Sattler, Gennaro, Grant and Malcolm are suddenly faced with an Apatosaurus that Hammond has cloned, and are stupefied by what this means to reality as they know it. Hammond is proud, and he outlines their itinerary as his guests – and leaves them in the care of Ed Regis. 

Discussions surround:

Responsibility and Safety, Ecological Criticism, Dinosaurs, having a God Complex, Hammond's Dream, Notable omissions, and differences between the novel and the film, and a lot more!
