Happy 200th to Charles Darwin

It’s the 200th anniversary of Charles Darwin’s birth, so here are a few relevant links to celebrate the day.

First off, if you haven’t read The Origin of Species, read it.  It’s very readable and easy to follow. If you’re too cheap to buy the book, here’s a link to a free text version from Project Gutenberg.
