    I remember in 2005 when the highway construction crew on E. Kellogg unearthed a mammoth fossil, and the Eagle proclaimed in one of these comical pretend headlines that the fossil was really proof that the Kansas Democratic Party once existed. I’ll bet that Bonnie Huy, Willa DeCastro and Ben Sciortino really dislike being beaten by long-dead fossils.
