About Me ..

        Hi ! I'm Alan Grant. I have sun-tanned skin and blue eyes. People usually call me Dr Grant. I am a palaeontologist. I'm studying the fossils of the dinosaurs and other animals that lived long time ago. I worked in Montana, USA. I'm athletic and I like children. I am the author of The Lost World of the Dinosaurs.
        On Wednesday, when I was kneeling on the ground brushing dust away from a tiny bone, a lawyer from EPA came to me. His name is Bob Morris. He asked me about John Hammond. He asked me about his work and what is he doing now in Isla Nublar. So, I told him what I knew. He also asked me about Gennaro.
        After Bob went home, a doctor at Columbia University sent me a fax. I was surprised. She sent me a fax of an X-ray of a lizard who lived more than 200 million years ago. I think it's a compsognathus. I read the note which came with the X-ray and it said that a lizard found on Cabo Blanco Beach in Costa Rica. This lizard attacked a 10-year-old girl and also babies. Hmm .. very confusing right? There hasn't been a lizard like this on Earth for more than million years. And now, that lizard shown up. There has been something wrong. What must I do?
        And after that, there’s a call from John Hammond. Hammond is a millionaire. He is the owner of InGen Incorporated. He has two grandchildren and I hope can meet them. He very interested in dinosaurs. He gives money to people doing research on dinosaurs. That’s enough form introducing him.
        He asked me about Bob, the lawyer. He also invited me to his island near Costa Rica, called Isla Nublar. He bought the island 10 years ago. He also invited my friend, Dr. Ellie Sattler. Oh I’m sorry, I forgot to introduce her. Ellie is a paleobotanist who studies plants from the time of dinosaurs. She's nice and she also helps me study the fossils. Hammond said Isla Nublar is going to be a resort and animal park. Hammond pay I and Ellie to be his consultants, he'd like our opinion about his island and will pay us $60 000 each. That much money can pay for our research for the next two years! So I'm coming. He said that he'll be waiting us in Choteau airport at 5 p.m. tomorrow evening. I can’t wait to come to Isla Nublar. However, how about the lizard? How do you guys think? Hmm .. I think I will go to Isla Nublar first then finish that problem. Beside, Isla Nublar is near Costa Rica right :D ? I will take some pictures there and upload them here so you guys can see them ;) . I am very excited and I hope everything just gonna be fine :)
