Alfred Russel Wallace (105 years ago (90)) would theorize 'evolution' and 'natural selection', and publish papers similar to, independent of, and simultaneous with those of Charles Darwin.  However, Darwin got the acclaim.  So but for the acclaim, we may be passing out Wallace Awards to the dolts who off themselves in some ridiculous manner.

Remember, remember, the 8th of November, chief Robert Catesby was shot. Recusant Catholic Robert Catesby's 'Gunpowder Plot' to blow up the House of Lords with James I in it all came crashing down on this day 413 years ago, aged 33. Three of his six compatriots, John & Christoper Wright and Thomas Percy, were killed the same day. The other three, Thomas & Robert Wintour and Guy Fawkes, were tried and executed a couple of months later.
