Short Take: Duck duck dinosaur

Hackers or crackers. Or in this case quakers. Whatever you call them, one of them broke into the Lost World Web site with the mission of turning the image of a threatening T-Rex into a duck. Universal Pictures, which runs the site, said the hacker didn't totally fowl up the site--the duck image was only up from about 3 a.m. to 8 a.m. Wednesday morning. "Any time you have a break in your firewall you have to take it seriously," said Universal Pictures spokesman Alan Sutton. "But it's important to maintain perspective."
