Couldn't pass up the opportunity to wish the big guy, over there on the right hand side of this blog, a happy birthday. He's 199 today!
From the Darwin Day Website:
Darwin Day is an international celebration of science and humanity held on or around February 12, the day that Charles Darwin was born on in 1809. Specifically, it celebrates the discoveries and life of Charles Darwin -- the man who first described biological evolution via natural selection with scientific rigor. More generally, Darwin Day expresses gratitude for the enormous benefits that scientific knowledge, acquired through human curiosity and ingenuity, has contributed to the advancement of humanity.
There's plenty of events being run around the world, so go ahead and party - but don't forget to leave something in reserve for his 200th next year!!

I've decided to celebrate this momentous day by designing a long-range experiment in evolution.
Goal: To convince creationists that who are willing to believe in "micro-evolution" but don't believe in "macro-evolution" (i.e. turning a fish into an amphibian).
Hypothesis: With the right environmental conditions, such as a food source that moves progressively into the shallows then ever so slowly onto the land, zebrafish, over many many generations, can be bred to strengthen their fins and inhale air enough to become little mudskippers.
Do-able? I say we should try....
