Re: [meteorite-list] Removal from the list
Hi Graham and All As one of the people you persuaded to join the List, I beg you not to feel embarrassed about the level of discussion in the last few weeks. Anyone who has gone to the pub and tried to have a rational discussion on politics will know how low things can go.

Two words: Panspermia Theory.

Hi Everyone, With all due respect to all. This list has ONE forum. Almost ALL forums online have many forum categories, and most have an off-topic category forum for people to communicate their opinions and discuss off-topic posts. It keeps the community whole and gives members who wish to discuss off-topic issues, a choice. In other words you still do have a choice. Read the post or hit your delete key. The Alien Life thread is in fact either indirectly or possibly directly related to meteorites, and therefore VERY worthy of this list. Anyone who'd like to argue that notion should reconsider their own understanding of what the study of meteorites truly means and their own list membership. By complaining about seemingly off-topic posts in regards to aliens people are in effect saying they don't want to learn about their universe. Sorry if that seems harsh, but I've seen a lot worse things on this list than the serious philosophical and scientifically educated discussions of the possibility of life elsewhere in the universe. I for one would much rather discuss seriously the alien life subject in relationship to the studies being performed on meteorites, and the evidence being found within them that support the notion of life elsewhere, rather than be a part of a forum who speaks unintelligently about alien abduction, or close encounters and UFO sightings. Besides, the whole reason behind the study of meteorites in the first place is to learn MORE about our universe, and this CERTAINLY includes the search for extraterrestrial life and in fact could center on it. Those who would argue that scientific and logical discussion about the possibilities of life elsewhere in our universe based on the connection between that life and meteorites is somehow Not Worthy and Off-Topic is somehow not entirely fair or correct. It doesn't have to be a discussion about little green men, it has to do with the study of meteorites and the real possibility of extraterrestrial life, and the direct connections with meteorites if any that exist. To deny that is simply akin to an ostrich sticking it's head in the sand.

Pete: I used to entertain notions of Panspermia, before I lost my religion (concerning outer space intelligent life). I don't think there are enough particles of matter to support the Brownian Motion necessary to move the spores or sperm or dna or what have you. Maybe here in our Local Neighborhood, but probably not in intergalactic space. Only a small percentage of matter as we know it is out there. Unless you get Brownian Motion from dark matter, dark energy, antimatter, or whatever that stuff is out there. Eric Sterling: I agree with you 125% on the topicality of the question of the existence of outer space life. If you don't like the topic du jour, instead of yelping like a wounded beagle, why not just start a new thread that is so totally awesome that everyone starts discussing it instead.

[meteorite-list] Removal from the list - Aliens Did It!
The key words here are unless interefered with. That is like saying all things being equal. They never are! Let's say an object is approaching our little sub spiral armlet, from the main spiral arm of the Milky Way. Or, if you want to keep it within the Local Neighborhood, it's coming from the outer reaches of the Oort Cloud. Gosh, I can't think of one single thing that would interfere with it's motion! It's a complete and total vacuum all the way, no solar wind, no gravitational effects from Jupiter, etc. NOT! Of course something is going to interfere with it. Maybe under an ideal set of circumstances that statement is true. But practically speaking, I believe something could quite possibly cause intereference.
