@EnriqueViguera Book writing was going poorly 😅 "I am going to write a little Book for Murray on orchids, and today I hate them worse than everything."

[Paige Madison @FossilHistory]

#OnThisDay in 1861, Charles Darwin wrote to his friend "But I am very poorly today and very stupid and hate everybody and everything."

[Paige Madison @FossilHistory]

@NigelLloyd10 He was working on his orchid book, writing later in the letter, "I am going to write a little Book for Murray on orchids, and today I hate them worse than everything."

Warning from Duval et al. 'In particular, our results show that mCT scanning may not only affect the preservation of the collagen in bones and teeth used for Radiocarbon dating, but also induce a non-negligible radiation dose in the enamel, thus artificially aging a given fossil sample dated by ESR'
