It's #DarwinDay! Celebrate by being consumed by insecurity and sitting on your best ideas for years! Also: BARNACLES!

I'm going to look at this tweet -an excellent description of Darwin's twenty years of tweaking before finally publishing his theory - as recognizing that I can still finish either of the two Nanowrimo novels I have first drafts of. Well, nearly done first drafts of.

Answers in Genesis, a Young Earth Creationist group has tried to hijack the day by asking for "#darwinwaswrongday" Tweets (Darwin was wrong day). Evolution proponents, typically more scientifically literate, appeared better able to do the hijacking and have produced a huge number of Tweets spoofing AiG. My own submission suggested that Darwin (a city in Australia) was wrong about the parking plans for a local hospital. Not all that funny, except for using the name in another context.
