This is a long-lost photo showing Charles Darwin blowing off steam
while working on his theory. It is now being sold on E-Bay and may
sell for nearly $1,500,000.

Just the other day -- well, actually on July 29, 1996 --
de...@hell.com (Darwin Boy) -- Chuck's great-great-grandson -- wrote
to talk.origins admiting his grandpappy was wrong and Ed Conrad is
right . . .
<
< Scrapings from Ed Conrad's frontal lobes

<
Ed Conrad, naturally, was tickled pink and wrote back . . .
<
Congratulations! You've got a mighty fine microscope there.
<
I've just used my Tinkertoy microscope to check out your findings and
I'm pretty sure I'm seeing what you're seeing, except I think I'm also
seeing some bark of Lepidodendron and some droppings from a giant
prehistoric scorpion.
<
I'm wondering if your Woolworth's Junior Scientist Kit microscope also
cost $32.50 and was imported from Taiwan?
<
Incidently, soon as I get a few extra bucks, I'm going to order one of
those Tinkertoy telescopes. I sort of question those photos
being beamed back from the Hubble and I'd sure like to check them out
for myself.

Mark Steese (Stees...@jacksoncounty.org) responded, happier than a pig

<
< All right, who's responsible for this?
<
< Someone's actually managed to write

<
< It's a little too obvious, but it's still great,

This is the Hubble's greatest photo that was taken of a black speck of
sky shown in an astounding photo of deep space that had taken
years before.
<
This view captures the mind-boggling outreaches of the universe as if
taken through an eight-inch straw.
<
No question, almost the same mind-boggling scene would be evident no
matter where the Hubble is pointed. The size of the universe is THAT
incredible.
<
All astrophysicists and even Stephen Hawking and Pope Benedict XVI
agree with Ed Conrad that, IF there IS intelligent life anywhere in
the universe, it probably exists on a planet in some far-distant
galaxy trillions, maybe zillions, of miles from earth. But they
strongly doubt it.
