No doubt that Kirsh is right. But I am willing to bet that Kirsh would not know an alien if he shook hands with one! When humans see alien life they just say ho hum and keep going on about their day. They keep looking and get excited when some microbe shows up in a meteorite. But if they actually see a picture taken on mars they most likely and usualy call it just shadows. They want nothing to upset their apple cart. And these are people that call themselves educated. They have an uncany ability to NOT think outside the box!
