Double Take

evolution and agriculture

It was a few days ago that i suddenly took notice of Charles Darwin's profile staring back at me from the back of the 10 pound english note. I laughed outloud, and had to look again to be sure it was really him. In the states we struggle over decisions to teach Darwin in biology classrooms and here his face sits behind the queen on the currency. I found it amusing.

Yesterday afternoon marked the very first sighting of a John Deere trucker hat. I get the feeling that in Huntingdon PA if you dont own this same hat yourself someone you know has at least two, but seeing the hat in Leeds it just seemed entirely out of place.
