A Toast to Our Unifying Theory of Biology

On this day, 1859, Charles Darwin published 'On the Origin of Species' (damn you, Google! You didn't even give this one a highlight! Sticking out tongue ).

 

Cheers to the ongoing pursuit of getting to know ourselves.

 

Quote:
"Natasha has just come up to the window from the courtyard and opened it wider so that the air may enter more freely into my room. I can see the bright green strip of grass beneath the wall, and the clear blue sky above the wall, and sunlight everywhere. Life is beautiful. Let the future generations cleanse it of all evil, oppression and violence, and enjoy it to the full."

- Leon Trotsky, Last Will & Testament
February 27, 1940

Taxation is the price we pay for failing to build a civilized society. The higher the tax level, the greater the failure. A centrally planned totalitarian state represents a complete defeat for the civilized world, while a totally voluntary society represents its ultimate success. --Mark Skousen

You talking to me?  I don't see anybody else in here, so you must be talking to me.

You talking to me?

Travis Bickle was just a wee bit paranoid as well.
