Wow, people actually use that word?

Doctorow actually used the word "saurian" to mean old in Truncat. I never knew people actually use that word that way. Unless I understood the word wrong? I mean, most people use it to describe some humanoid reptile thing/being (wonder why they don't just use reptilian instead of saurian).

(I know this is old news, but I just discovered that author today.)
