Lets make up some carols for next years Darwinmas
Yep, I know.
Darwin is a capital of the Northern Territory, Australia.
The town took its name from Dr. Darwin French who explored the area in 1860 giving his name to the falls, canyon and wash. With the discovery of rich silver and lead deposits in 1874, Darwin became the center of activity in the New Coso mining district. In 1877 three furnaces were in operation and the town had a population of over 1,000. By 1878 strikes at Mammoth and Bodie left the town near deserted.

Word dat!I think Darwin's birthday should be a national holiday, along with Newton's and Einstein's.
I don't know of that ghost town. I only know of the city in Australia.
Yours was named after Darwin, but ours was actually named after Charlie boy, when he was previously in that hound ship. The captain had named the harbour after him Port Darwin. I doubt Darwin had actually set his foot there.
See wiki's Darwin, Northern Territory.
I actually didn't know this, until I read the wiki's page a couple of minutes ago, but I suspected it might have been named after C.D.
Word dat!
Awesome new study from the Université de Montréal: Origin of Life on Earth: Scientists Unlock Mystery of Molecular Machine.
"While the ribosome is a complex structure it features a clear hierarchy that emerged based on basic chemical principles," says Sergey Steinberg, a Université de Montréal biochemistry professor who made his discovery with student Konstantin Bokov. "In the absence of such explanations, some people could imagine unseen forces at work when such complex structures emerge in nature."

I've only read the article and links, but not the actual paper. I'll have to run to the library and read it in Nature, issue 457(7232):977-80, 2009. I can't access Nature articles from my work computer....
