Darwin Day has become an annual celebration, and the bicentenary of Darwin's birth and the 150th anniversary of the publication of On the Origin of Species are being celebrated by events and publications around the world


So that is why people are celebrating Darwin.

I think that's Darwin themed.

You don't Charles Darwin, English naturalist that proved evolution and natural selection, wrote the Origin of Species and accomplished other things.

My Google page isn't themed, sadly.

I'm surprised the .com google has gone with Darwin and no Lincoln. Then again I suppose it is easie to change the google logo into a Darwin theme.

Well he didn't prove evolution or anything. But he was the first create the theory of evolution by showing that evolution and adaptation occurs through natural selection.

Google is universal, so i think they would go with Darwin. Let me see what mine is like:

Yep Darwin

Sic Sempur Tyranus were the words John Wilkes booth yelled after jumping down to the stage from the balcony Lincoln was shot in eleven feet in the air. After a nation wide man hunt he was tracked down to a barn he refused to come out so they set the barn on fire. He eventually came out, where he was immediately shot.

His dying words were .....

Booth uttered his final words, "Useless, useless," and died as dawn was breaking.


Quoted from Wikipedia

Booth, and a group of co-conspirators whom he led, planned to kill Abraham Lincoln, Vice President Andrew Johnson, and Secretary of State William Seward in a desperate bid to help the tottering Confederacy's cause. Although Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia had surrendered four days earlier, Booth believed the war was not yet over since Confederate General Joseph Johnston's army was still fighting the Union Army under General William Tecumseh Sherman. Of the conspirators, only Booth was completely successful in carrying out his part of the plot.


From Wikipedia

If Booth and his friends were successful in their plot to kill the three most powerful leaders in the US at that time, then history would have been very different. Booth was an idiot to believe the war was still being fought.
