Scopes Trial folk song

May 7th, 2007

This link just popped up on H-Net: “Scopes Trial“, as sung by Mr. Vance Randolph in Eureka Springs Arkansas, September 24 1959, from The Max Hunter Folk Song Collection.

Worth a listen.

Lamarck Giraffe

August 7th, 2005

I finally got around to making the bumper sticker I’ve wanted for so long… the Lamarck Giraffe. Ideal for historians of science to declare themselves above the Creation/Evolution controversy. A stridently ambiguous statement if ever there was one.

Maybe I’ll buy a few to show off/publicize at the HSS meeting this year.

Buy it here, only $1 mark-up.
