Ask the Doctor” where readers ask questions of the world renounced general practitioner Dr. Charles V. Fullerton

Dear Dr:  How do I escape from a dinosaur? I am deathly afraid of one coming after me. — Jurassic Shart

Dear J-Shart: Dinosaurs are afraid of shiny things.  So you can put on a shiny bracelet, carry some shiny coins to throw at them, and run!.   I once saw a T-Rex skid on his ass and flip over sideways trying to stop himself when he saw the sun light glinting off a crushed Budweiser can that way laying on the side of the street in a pile of leaves.  Trust me.  Shiny things.  Works every time.
