> The egg was actually laid by a dinosaur (or fish)

But yes... that's an interesting one (relatively of course. More
interesting than top/bottom posting, but less interesting than, say, almost
anything else). It really depends on whether the question is "which came
first, the chicken or the chicken's egg", in which case the answer is the
chicken because it came out of an egg that was laid by something not quite a
chicken, but with a chicken inside (ie. not a chicken's egg). Or just "the
egg", which does, indeed, have the answer you supplied. Sad really... the
death of religion in the minds of the sane has somewhat robbed this once
noble conundrum of it's power.
