It is named after Charles Darwin and for good reason. Those who receive
the award are recognized for their outstanding achievement in proving
the theory of natural selection.
That would only be true if the recipients attained award
status before they were old enough to pass on their genes.
Unfortunately this is rarely the case.
Be thankful for small favors!
