It's for the 150th anniversary of On the Origin of Species.
 
Darwin was neither an athiest or a magician. Was he a skeptic? Is that something that makes people unique?
 
It's still there when I look. On the forums header, not the JREF main page.

He developed a theory that overturned everything what we knew about a subject. There are only a handful of people who we can say did that. He also was probably one of the last people ever to do that.
 
What does that mean?

It means you are very perceptive and you don't let anything get by you.

ETA: It is a spoof of an old commercial, don't remember what for, but uses your name and your JREF sign up date instead of the company name and when it was founded.

But why would you say that?!

You are saying that an old commercial uses my name? What uses my name?

What does that have to do with what we are talking about?

JREF sold some James Randi dolls some time back. Only they were the same as the Charles Darwin dolls. Maybe the accessories were different that is all.
