No fim, revela-se que a nova teoria de Miss Elk sobre os brontossauros era superficial: \"Todos os brontossauros s\u00E3o finos numa das pontas, muito mais grossos no meio e depois finos novamente at\u00E9 ao fim\". A sua verdadeira preocupa\u00E7\u00E3o era que recebesse total cr\u00E9dito por esta nova teoria: \"\u00C9 a minha teoria, \u00E9 minha e pertence-me, e eu tenho-a e o que \u00E9, tamb\u00E9m\". Este sketch tamb\u00E9m \u00E9 mostrado no \u00E1lbum Monty Python's Previous Record, com o t\u00EDtulo Miss Anne Elk. O discurso com rodeios de Anne Elk foi baseado no companheiro de Graham Chapman, David Sherlock, que evidentemente falava de uma tal maneira, que divertia os outros Pythons. O sketch inspirou o conceito de Teorias de Elk para descrever observa\u00E7\u00F5es cient\u00EDficas que n\u00E3o s\u00E3o teorias mas anota\u00E7\u00F5es m\u00EDnimas. A personagem A.

This sketch was also performed on the album Monty Python's Previous Record, under the title 'Miss Anne Elk'. On this version, before beginning her second theory, the interviewer shoots her. At Cleese's request, the sketch was performed as part of the team's 2014 live reunion show, Monty Python Live (Mostly), with Eric Idle playing the interviewer. This version concluded with an extended coughing fit, before linking to the \"Dancing Teeth\" animation. The sketch inspired the concept of \"Elk theories\" to describe scientific observations that are not theories but merely minimal accounts. The character A. Elk and her \"Theory of Brontosauruses\" is used in the American Psychological Association Style Guide to illustrate how to reference a periodical article in a learned journal."@en . . . . . . . . . . . .
