On February 12th, the Society celebrated the birthday of a Prophet.A massive celebration was underway late into the night at the Eco-House to celebrate the 199th birthday of Charles Darwin: Naturalist, Statesman, Philanthropist, Revolutionary.
The Society delved into pizza, soda pop, and David Attenborough documentaries to get the party going. The more avid followers of Darwin's life and times brought their personal barnacle collections. Others brought their earthworms. Enthusiasm was brought by all.
The Society can hardly wait for Feb 12, 2009, the big 2-0-0 anniversary of this leviathan of natural history.
Until next time:

Great idea! ...maybe we should celebrate Wallace's day, too.
