Underpants thief blames Shadowrun

Submitted by Hittite Creosote
Hittite Creosote writes "The BBC reports that a man charged with stealing underwear from a shop at knifepoint has claimed that he believed he was a female elf at the time, having confused Shadowrun and real life.

Perhaps it would have been more believable if he'd claimed he thought he was a gnome?"

tintinaujapon writes "The Observer is reporting that scientists may have found the first evidence of panspermia, the idea promoted by Hoyle (among others) that life on earth was seeded from space, in samples of a strange rain which fell over India for two months in 2001. To quote the article: "There is a small bottle containing a red fluid on a shelf in Sheffield University's microbiology laboratory. The liquid looks cloudy and uninteresting. Yet, if one group of scientists is correct, the phial contains the first samples of extraterrestrial life isolated by researchers."" This is a continuation of a story two months back or so.
