Happy 200th Birthday to Chuck and Abe!!!
Let's all cheer two of the most outstanding humans in history, both of whom where born on Feb 12, 1809. :toast:

A big THANK YOU for all they did to fight slavery, and to free us from superstitious beliefs!

1. They were the same age! I didn't know that.
Nice.

I hang out on a forum where one of the guys works in a London library. He had his hands on some of Darwin's original texts last week. Pretty awesome.

2. I was surprised too. There should be a worldwide party...
... for the two of them.
