I agree.

I love the great leap from “It has water” to “helping lay the foundation for life on the planet.” That’s one small step for a sentence; one giant leap in logic.

I’m guessing that any organic material will have problems staying alive in space, plus being able to survive the entry into Earth’s atmosphere, and also withstanding the giant impact when it hits the Earth. That is one tough organism. The most this tells us is that there is / could be other organic life in the universe, which to me is far better.

We will never know how life started on Earth, and romanticizing like this is very unscientific (To me it’s the same as “God created life”).

I was born in the UK and moved to the USA in '95. One of the reasons I do not wish to move back is because of this type of thing. They already have cameras everywhere, and can track you in your car from one end of the country to the other.

When I talk to people in the UK about this, they almost always shrug their shoulders and say that you shouldn't speed, although they do think that it's getting out of hand.

I'm not sure how the people will stop this, as it looks like the Labour party has gone nuts, and an election is years away.

I'm still proud to be British; I'm just glad I'm not living there right now.
