Happy Birthday, Chuck!


Today people around the world celebrated the 200th anniversary of Charles Darwin's birth. The most unusual celebration I found was this evolutionary dinner in Melbourne. For AUD $150 each, guests first enjoy a "primeval soup," "crustaceans," "rise of plants on land," (mysteriously) "the dinosaur period," and finally a "meteoric impact surprise" - which I think is dessert.
