So it's no longer February, the month that contained the Darwin bicentennial, but what the hell. Darwin College of Cambridge University has an annual lecture series with a common topic, and for 2009 they chose, appropriately enough, Charles Darwin. If you have iTunes, then you can follow this link in order to listen to those lectures. There will be eight in all--so far only six have been posted. The only complaint I have about them is that nobody in charge considered the fact that these are lectures with visual images, which of course are lost. But they are still well worth it, and have constituted the bulk of my iPod listening for the last week. The lectures are each about an hour long, and are free.
UPDATE: Okay, the link I cut and pasted does not work. So instead open iTunes, go to the store, then open iTunes U. Look for the box labeled "Spotlight: Charles Darwin." In that box one item is "Darwin College Lecture Series; Cambridge University." Click on that and you'll be there.
