I would love to know just how similar the proteins were. Here is interesting research showing how the human and chicken genomes are also very similar.

Not sure what the T-Rex data proves, other than lots of creatures have a similar genetic composition to a chicken. Guess this means that I'm "related" to a T-rex too, since I apparently came from a chicken...could explain my short arms and overbite.
I'm more interested in the fact that T-Rex soft tissue can survive for, supposedly, 65M years...
