Today marks the 206th anniversary of Charles Darwin's bornday. February 12 is celebrated as International Darwin Day and many communities and colleges host events and town hall informal science events. If there is an activity happening in your region, I encourage you to attend.
At the very least enjoy this replay from the Hip Hop Science Quiz Show where there is a match off Chuck D vs. Chuck D. Happy Darwin Day!!!
