*Sorry about the audio quality---this was filmed on the fly so we didn't grab a real mic for this little clip. Might fix the sound up and add a couple more informative diagrams later. In the meantime, enjoy that Thanksgiving dino-descendant turkey with a side of Darwin!

This Thanksgiving (and Evolution Day!) brought to you by the letter M (for mineralization)
This year Thanksgiving serendipitously coincides with Evolution Day (the anniversary of the publication of Darwin's "Origin of Species" in 1859), so it seems *only* appropriate to express our thankfulness for mineralization (which allows fossils to be created from decaying organisms). This played a key role in Darwin developing and proving the theories of evolution.

We hope you enjoy this short clip on Evolution Day, the anniversary of Darwin's "Origin of Species" (which happened to coincide with Thanksgiving this year!).
ReplyDeleteIt was fun to film ;) ... took about 30 seconds longer *to plan and film* than the entire vid takes to watch!
We just had the urge to share with all of you our thankfulness for mineralization! ;)
