    iirc John Hammond covers this in the book. I was so young, but something is triggering it for me. Could just be the subconscious trying to protect grade 4 nostalgia, though.

    Hell, I could’ve picked that up off playing Jurassic World Evolutions in the last six months and it’s backpedal lore.

    Whatever it is, Michael Crichton was no idiot.
