Default Is this a dandelion or what?

I can't get that newsgroup but I wondered if it was one of those
dandelions with multiple heads that I find around here sometimes. No one
ever believes me about them.


There is a plant that many people call a dandelion but it has the common
name of 'flatweed' or 'catsear' - Hypochoeris radicata. It has dandelion
like leaves, dandelion like flowers but multiple stems on whcih it flowers.
