What if we used a time machine, go back in time, place a mosquito on a dinosaur, then when all full of blood place it into a cryogenic container that can last say 70+million years, go back to the present, find the container, and sequence the DNA?
Why not just bring the mosquito back? Or the actual dinosaur?

It was too early in the morning for me to pick up on that.
My fault, not yours.
No worries, I get mistaken for a stupid person all the time (… but I added the word “mistaken” there out of my own hubris, deep down I know those are no mistakes).
Science is supposed to be complicated, dammit! /s
Oh, you also attended Rube Goldberg University?
Good ol’ RGU. The Fightin’ Contraptions.
I think that was the joke
Probably
