It was the middle of the night. Nobody was on the beach. It was warm. It was extremely windy. We were getting some rain. It was very dark. All lights were out because this is turtle nesting season. The ocean was making a lot of noise. Huge waves repeatedly crashed on to the beach.
It was wonderful.
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
