Our Lord & Savior

There is a new blog on ScienceBlogs, Blogging the Origin, which is going over The Origin of Species. Because this is the Darwin bicentenary there is going to be a lot of the reflection upon the legacy of the great man; e.g., Blog For Darwin. I have to admit that I haven't read The Origin of Species since I was a child, when I didn't understand evolution with any level of precision, so I plan to reread Darwin's oeuvre at some point this year for my own edification. I also recommend the In Our Time Darwin retrospective; just subscribe to "In Our Time" in iTunes and you can get the 4 programs as podcasts.
