Megapnosaurus?

Spudley writes: "I was tempted to put this under the humor topic, but I guess it's best here in science. An entertaining article in USA Today tells of how a beetle expert arbitrarily changed the scientific name of a dinosaur from "Syntarsus" (Latin: "fused ankle") to "Megapnosaurus" (Latin: "big dead lizard"). Dinosaur experts are (understandably) kicking up quite a fuss about it."

What's all the fuss about?

Come now, who's ever heard of a "Syntarsus" before? If it was a T-rex or a triceratops getting renamed, I could see the problem.. but personally the difference between a fused ankle dino and a dead lizard doesn't make a whole lotta difference. Comeon, they're dead.
