I've said it be...<i>"Another planet..."</i><br /><br />I've said it before online, possibly in your comment threads: please read John Gribbin's <i>The Reason Why</i>. It has two main themes (IMHO): one, the requirements for human life on Earth are many and strict; small deviations in those conditions mean no human life, and two, the aspects of Earth's history that led to its fulfilling those strict requirements are numerous, peculiar among planets and planetary systems, and quite likely do not occur elsewhere in the Milky Way galaxy. Believe it or not as you choose; Gribbin has pretty well convinced me that there are no other planets in the galaxy bearing intelligent life.Steve Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07587223243120009776noreply@blogger.com
