Scientists are lead around by their wallets. It's my opinion! You can't say anything about it!

I thought dinosaurs died off because they didn't fit on Noah's Ark?

If this estimation on the size of the asteroid is correct then we're at alot more risk of death from above than previously thought. It used to be thought that it took an asteroid the size of Texas, if memory serves me right. The Isle of Wiight is puny in comparison(less than a 1000th of the size of Texas), which means there are alot more humanity ending asteroids out there than previously thought.

Right, but remember cold-blooded animals are more sensitive to change in environment than warm-blooded animals (us), so hopefully it'd take more to finish us off.

Dinosaurs were warm-blooded.

Like Alan said, they were warm blooded, and were around a lot longer than humans have been (and we are the only remaining hominid, our genus was not very successful from that standpoint). That asteroid wiped out 70% of all animal and plant life on earth at the time, humans probably wouldn't survive that.
Besides, birds evolved from dinosaurs, so its not like their descendants aren't around, just much different.
