Descent of Man
"A tattoo of human evolution on my leg. I think that explanation is pretty.... well, self-explanatory" --Krisko
The Nature of the Emporium
- I (a science writer) wondered aloud if scientists had tattoos of their science. The answer was yes, and this site is the evidence. I'll be adding a new tattoo every day until I run out (if that day ever comes). If you want to share your own scientific ink, send it to me with some explanation.

You know for once I'd like to see the hominids in these "descent/evolution of man" type cartoons drawn as FEMALES. Not complaining about this particular one since it seems to be on a guy's leg, but I just realized, they're always males in the cartoons.
