From http://www.darwinawards.com/

"The Darwin Awards honor those who improve our gene pool... by removing themselves from it. Of necessity, this honor is bestowed posthumously."

At one time ('93, '94), that meant a complete removal of the entire branch from the gene pool preferrably before the branch is started. Reviewing the current rules, having offspring no longer disqualifies the individual. Guess things change over time (and I need to stop living in the past <g>).
