With Harvard reputedly to receive $1,000,000 a year, for the next several years, to study how life emerged on Earth - will our children laugh at the thought that we were ever naive enough to believe Darwin's theory of evolution?
when the air sea rescue were just practising. I was just on my way to bed when I heard the helicopter. You can't miss it, it's v.v. loud. Anyway - it's probably just on a training run or something, but it's gone midnight and there's no wind and it's sweeping the marina arm. So it's unlikely to be a boat in trouble and if it's not a training exercise then it's most likely that some poor sod has fallen or thrown themselves in - if it were a saturday night I'd opt for fallen in. Anyway - until it stops buzzing around, it feels cavalier just to tuck up in bed and ignore it.
