On December 1st, 2012, I met Neil deGrasse Tyson. I shook the man's hand, and even made him laugh. Not much else to do with my life now.

Ask a paleontologist.

Many scientists believe dinosaurs, such as Tyrannosaurus rex, were capable of making low-pitched rumbling noises, but not necessarily the magnificent, drawn-out roars featured in films such as Jurassic Park.

Pure Insanity
The point of war is not to die for one's clan, but it's to make the other bastard die for his
Right before you die, there is always a chance to save yourself, sieze that chance and live to fight another day
The best way to kill someone is to fight them with the same weapons they use and make them know you are better than them, not because of superior weaponry, but because of superior skill.
Hidden in the shadows, Clothed in camo, Armed to the teeth. Hunting.

They didn't have vocal cords.

This. They made noise, but not like how Hollywood portrays it.

Well, last time I heard a T-rex it sounded more like the moment a neckbearded basement dweller takes his first venture outside, a high pitched scream ending in a sizzle.

Not necessarily true. Vocal cords in the larynx is a trait that evolved independently in more than one lineage of animals. Birds have vocal cords, mammals have vocal cords, and scientists, examining the grooves and muscle placement of dinosaur bones, believe dinosaurs did all the same

This is an example of convergent evolution- similar traits evolving independently amongst distantly related organisms.

Recon Number 54 -
If they are still looking, then while holding the snarl, I let drool start to drip from my mouth, I stand, curl my fingers into claws and with a hunched over crouch, I then make slow and deliberate steps towards them. When I get close enough, I let them hear my agonized and gasping growls and then, if they continue to stare, when I get within arm's reach? I kiss them on the nose, and run away giggling.

Because Jurassic Park is 100% Scientifically accurate.
