Well, I whisked the family off to the local United Church of Christ for Sunday services! (they were signatories of the Evolution Sunday Clergy Letter Project) However, it appears that today is Racial Equality Sunday in Illinois. However, race wasn't really discussed either. Oh well, the snowy countryside was beautiful to see on our way out there! What a weird Darwin day....I feel like I've been had. Lured into a church! I'm going to correct this injustice with a walk down the creek.
Let's bring out the cake and ice cream and celebrate!
Happy Birthday!! What a great picture!!
I wonder what he would think of the world today.
A magnificent portrait of the man; my favorite. I don't know what he'd thnk of the world today, but this website would make him smile.
Gosh he's quite the senior citizen! :)
197 must be a record!
For a look at a younger Charles Darwin, go see the birthday card Carl Buell has painted over at http://www.olduvaigeorge.com/
We have a baby coming sometime in May, a girl. We're thinking of Darwin as a middle name.
Wait for 2008 or 9 then (!)
BIG thrash we hope!
Darwin was born on the same day as Abraham Lincoln .... Erm .....
To much of using the innocent for your own agenda.
But if anyone wants a purely nice yet biological name, it's Liana.

Here's an e-mail I received from Defcom (Campaign to Defend the Constitution): Send your loved ones a Darwin Valentine! And "let your love evolve."

He doesn't look a day over 150.
He's in good company of aged hero-scientists.
