What about the Disney Hypothesis?

An interesting article appears today in the San Francisco Chronicle about debate at UC-Berkeley over the cause of the extinction of the dinosaurs.  Was it caused by a comet striking the Earth?  Or something else?  A more precise estimate of the timing of the strike has been produced.

But what happened to the Disney hypothesis - which Southern Californians can relate to - that it was all due to too much sunshine and not enough water?
