Nope. It's Turok 1.

A toyline was made from the Turok IP, too.



At any rate, Mass called it. It was Dino-Riders.

Obviously it isn't just optimism on my part. Your lack of knowledge of current scientific advancement is just as weak defending your stance as my supposed mere optimism is for mine. Arguing that weather control is only theoretical is like saying that autonomous personal vehicles are only theoretical. Seriously, read the books on the subject like I have before being so adamant about your stance.

The burden of proof was on you, not me. I can't count how many times some crackpot on the Internet has tried to argue that ridiculous processes were applicable by trying to convince me to "go look it up" myself. At any rate, the "technology" described there reads more like mere acceleration of a natural process rather than full artificial control. But fair enough, I'll accept it as proof positive and concede.

My next question is how long did it take you to find it? Obviously you didn't have it immediately accessible, otherwise you would have led off with it in the first place instead of me having to repeatedly prod you to provide said proof. It's not like you to delay proving a debate adversary wrong.

I've been doing almost all of my posting on here from my phone while at work on my breaks. It's quite tedious. But I found that in the top results in my first search. Truth be told, I was on my phone yet again when I found it and I didn't like how old it was and I didn't even read it. For all I knew, it could have weakened my case. I just figured it would have to do until I got off work and even if it wasn't what I was looking for (and it kind of isn't), I knew I'd have no trouble finding a ton of good stuff at some point. I did go back and read it, of course. Another reason I haven't been able to provide much here is that most of my information is from hard copies, like the book I mentioned and I find myself trusting digital sources much less these days. At the very least, I'd rather find very good, trustworthy sources rather than just throwing out the first link I come across, even though I did just that in my last post there. It basically comes down to time. I seem to have less and less of that these days. Stupid adulthood. Anyway, I'd still suggest reading that book! It has all sorts of crazy awesome things in it. It's broken down into fields, like healthcare, transportation, energy sources, etc. And it does near future, mid-future, and far future advancement possibilities. I think my favorite was the nano-technology contact lenses. They have almost limitless possibilities if they get those up and running.
