Don't store avocado like this: it's dangerous'This label is wrong'. A very singular episode that happened to Natural History Museum di Londra, where a 10-year-old boy noticed an error and reported it to the museum managers.
Charlie Edwards he is a child from Essex, very special because he has Asperger's syndrome which prompts him to have a sometimes morbid behavior, for the things that most passionate him.
As in the case of the dinosaurs. So while she was visiting the Natural History Museum with her mom and little brother, she noticed something was wrong. Charlie passionate about animals and paleontology he saw that the figure of what he knew as a dinosaur belonging to the Triceratops family was, instead, called Oviraptor.
Firmly convinced of his theory, the boy reported with his mother, his doubt directly to the curators of the Museum. And the latter, after the necessary checks, could not help but ascertain that the error was there.
In a letter, the Museum thanked the child, assuring him that the panel will be changed. The story told by the BBC, did the world Tour. The same internationally renowned paleontologist Paul Barrett, admitted that the dinosaur in the panel was not an Oviraptor.

According to the museum spokesman, the gallery has been renovated several times and once distraction caused the mistake. Very possible thing, but the whole thing has not escaped attention Charlie!
