Hi Sterling,
- Firstly, thanks for a very enjoyable post!
I have noticed a trend over the years for the Value of N to become lower
and lower, when it was first talked about we should have ET practically
on Mars, but now we are down to a few maybee's in our galaxy if at all.
(don't get me start
n the Galaxy and do what you think the

would do.
Maybe, after a while, it would get to be a habit...

Hi Mark,
> N = N* fp ne fl fi fc Fl (The Drake Equation)
I've always enjoyed jiggering with the numbers in the Drake
equation; unfortunately, most of the parameters are completely
unknown and so whatever value you choose is a complete guess.
Here's my w.a.g. at parameter values (vs. yours in p
As the list is quiet at the moment:
The drake equation:
N = N* fp ne fl fi fc Fl (The Drake Equation)
Where:
N* represents the number of stars in the Milky Way Galaxy
fp is the fraction of stars that have planets around them
ne is the number of planets per star that are capable of sustainin
