Abstract
Stegosaurs have been shrouded in mystery since they were first discovered. Many aspects of the intriguing dinosaur have not been resolved and it does not seem likely that they will be any time in the near future. Such mysteries include stegosaurs' plate arrangement, brain deficiency, plate purposes, and tail spike purposes. Many ideas have been bounced back and forth through history on these issues, and many have recently been explored again, yet we are still not in agreement about the daily life of Stegosaur Bob.
