| Something to ponder: "The last word of ignorance is the man who says of an animal or plant: 'What good is it?' If the land mechanism as a whole is good, then every part is good, whether we understand it or not. If the biota, in the course of aeons, has built something we like, but do not understand, then who but a fool would discard seemingly useless parts? To keep every cog and wheel is the first precaution of intelligent tinkering." Aldo Leopold, The Sand County Almanac |

September 28, 2010 Frank Lang, Stumbling in the Footsteps of
Darwin Down Under: Modern Adventures
in Argentina and Tasmania
Highlights of two recent trips featuring modern travel, modern
sights, and wildlife from Rheas to Wombats and some very tall
trees. We will travel Coastal Argentine Patagonia north of Terra del
Fuego to some places Darwin saw and some places he should
have seen, but didn't. Then on the second trip, we head to
Tasmania where Darwin celebrated his birthday in 1836. We see
Darwin's world through modern eyes.
Frank Lang is emeritus professor of biology at Southern Oregon
University and was the host of the program 'Nature Notes' on
Jefferson Public Radio. A collection these program scripts was
published as 'Nature Notes Sampler'. A second collection of scripts
is scheduled for an October publication date.
