You need a new teacher.

I read it in school watched this and now we have read over 20 Ray Bradbury short stories.

@zvermilyer3 Yes, but that happened, and that lead somewhat to things now.

@zvermilyer3 i agree. Who is to say that the dinosaur won't fall on a tree sapling that otherwise would be the descendent of a bunch of trees, one of which contains a bee colony millenia later. A bee from that would-be descendent tree would sting a little girl who is allergic to bee stings. She dies. But if she lived because that sapling got crushed millenia ago, then she grows up to create a virus that kills everyone! sometimes you just gotta go with the story and not ask too many questions!

i remember reading this story as a freshman in high school; ray bradsburry has a lot of simple sci fi novels

BBC Radio drama did a brilliant audiobook adaptation, read by actor Sean Barrett. In fact, I don't think it was abridged at all, and Barrett gets the tension right on the money. Way, way better than this video and the film version. Listen to it if you can.

Allow me to point out a flaw in Travis's logic: when that dinosaur gets shot, it's going to fall down. When that happens, who's to say it won't fall on a mouse? In other words, just staying on the path won't necessarily prevent history from being changed.

I hate to be the one to point this out, but dinosaurs were extinct 60 million years ago.

I read this in school :)
