Well, the simplest prediction that Darwinism makes is that, the farther back in the fossil record you go, the simpler the life forms get. So far, that prediction's held up. One of my favorite predictions has got to be: "One will never find birds with mammary glands" which was used, with some comic effect, on these threads earlier this year.

That wasn't exactly a difficult prediction to make, since Darwin was dealing with a closed system with a defined beginning (at least in theory, even if we don't know exactly when the universe began) and no defined end. If I were to go back through history and say that the human population of any given "system" was lower the further back you go, you'd find few instances in which that was not the case.
