Most of the CAmbridge project is finished and the open source guys won out. The DArwin Project has been a building for about 7 years with fits and starts. Now most of his communications and all his pubs are on the web, (including the famous U of Penn variorum).
ANYTHING YOU WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT CHARLES DARWIN
More will be added I understand, as new papers and correspondence are being discovered almost daily
Funny you should post it in the S&R forum. . . .
well, Im kinda tired of these evolution threads on the SCience Line when its really "dueling worldviews" . This way, the science guys will get it and the religious guys will be really pissed off.
Im such a dink.
Go dink!
Thanks for the website.
If you get a chance to see the travelling Darwin exhibit, do it.
There is something so amazing about seeing his actual journals (and his cosh).

He had a little, itty-bitty single-shot pistol, too . . .
yeah, the little pistol - that was kinda sweet - as far as guns can be sweet
it could fit in a nice little cellphone case
tell me about the pistol. BTW, did the Tranna show continue the myth that Drawin was, the "Expedition naturalist"?
I read that a while back. Quite good.
There was always talk about SYms and Charlie, in the Beagles shower.
Hes an overlooked historical character, supposedly ,, he was the origin of the term "going postal"
I've never heard that, but he did sound like an interesting character.
I speak in regards of the going postal bit and not the sordid shower scene.

I thought that terms was coined in the mid-80's by the media when postal workers kept shooting up their co-workers.
you may be right. OK, the term "going postal" was NOT coined for Syms Covington.
