Do it for Charles Musters!
Or do it for Charles Darwin.
Or do it for the fun of sailing.

...send in a Darwin (£10) or a Jackson ($20), spread the word, encourage colleagues to bookmark the site and root through their labcoat pockets for a donation...
Check the website and the blog. Then decide if you think this is a worthy cause.
The donations have started coming in. The biggest so far is $100. If you give more by the end of the tenth day of this drive, you will become a lucky owner of a copy of The Open Laboratory.
