Not to denigrate Mr. Darcy (I'm a big fan) but from the item it seems that his contribution was ephemeral, as opposed to that of Natalie Portman, who is more likely to have actually contributed to the paper which carries her real name, Natalie Hershlag (see http://tinyurl.com/35e6rg) Still, one can't deny the sexiness of having Mr. Darcy's name on your otherwise boring paper (in _Current Biology_ at http://tinyurl.com/3g3ezmm ). Now if they had only included a thumbnail of him with his shirt off. (Makes me think of the Alpher, Bethe, Gamow paper caper http://geomblog.blogspot.com/2005/03/alpher-bethe-gamow.html ) which I've always admired.
