Rob,
Astronomers have now concluded that there are over 100 Trillion
galaxies in the known Universe with EACH galaxy averaging over 1 billion
stars---and this is an estimate!! You seem to be underestimating the size of
our Universe. There is no way any of Drake's final values could be
The Drake Equation is a prime example of mental masuturbation. It proves
absolutely nothing. How can an equation prove anything when none of the
variables are known with any certainity? As Rob points out, one zero
nullifies the whole silly thing. How about Ne; the number of known Earth

We all know the Universe is really, really big. Maybe even infinite, maybe
infinite plus one, maybe even double dog infinite. What does that have to do
with abiogenisis? Why don't you tell me how life got started here on Earth,

Maybe you could just sum it up for me in a nutshell and explain the

Darren,
Of course I'm fixated on the origin of life, that's what this thread is
about isn't it? Nobody knows what life is or how it got started here on our
own home planet, so how could we possibly know it exists elsewhere? Just

Michael,
I have created a POI file that can be loaded into GPS receivers which has all
