Just a note. The Darwin exhibit at the American Museum of Natural History in New York is nearing the end of its run. If it comes to a museum near you (or you will be in NY before the end of the summer) I urge all of you to see it. The most amazing part of the exhibit are the "transmutational" notebooks that Darwin used to record is thinking about evolution written between 1836 to 1838. The actual notebooks where Darwin comes up with evolution by natural selection. The actual notebooks where a theory that changed the world was born. You can see it and you can almost touch it. Notebook B is opened to the page where Darwin draws the tree of life - the connection between all living creatures for the first time. It is right there in front of your eyes. The exhibit also documents Darwin's life - for the great satan he lived the most moral and exemplary life. He was a devoted husband and loving father. A man of incredible personal honesty integrity and modesty - ambitious yes - but honest. See the exhibit if you can _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
