    Renascence!
    How best to celebrate the renascence of this thread, we interred the sombre obits so now let's hoist the striking birthdays.

    Whose birthday is this Sunday? Sir David Attenborough.
    Why do we care? We care about everyone we played a puzzle in neurites.

    So here is an article ranking David's episodes from Life series. Happy Birthday DA!

    Every Episode of David Attenborough’s Life Series, Ranked

    DA is one of the gods of the geek pantheon, along with Nikola Tesla, Stephen Hawking, Carl Sagan, Richard Dawkins, Charles Darwin, Christopher Hitchens, so on and so forth. He is a global treasure! Whenever I'm having a stressful day, I play the Life series just to hear his soothing voice. : )

    Speaking of geek gods, here is a fun picture I'd saved a while ago. Scientists at the last supper.
