I fixed the poll, though I considered adding the obligatory Beer alternative.

There's something to be said for the personal discovery, discussion, and unfolding of the story, rather than a completed set of stories being presented. And; it's surprising that there was only one overlap which means that there's a whole lot more stories out there.

Do you have up-to-date working links for those stories?
Also the only stories I could find about the "man spitting out of car door" didn't say he died (or castrated himself) and hence he didn't remove himself from the gene pool. So he doesn't appear to qualify for Darwin status unless there are more detailed stories with follow up out there.
