Well I'm entirely sure he isn't a part of these forums, but Happy Birthday to Sir David Attenborough!
Born on May 8, 1926, he makes every single one of us toddlers in the world of natural science considering he started collecting rocks and other artefacts at a ripe old age of ~10. Along with being suave and debonaire, he also wrote and presented "The Private Life of Plants" in which you can find some of the most pretty plants, including the collectible Nepenthes rajah, and he even has a pitcher plant named after him, Nepenthes Attenboroughii.
