They are searching for it because it is a probable indicator of life... on another planet. Not much point searching closer to home for life on another planet, is there?Bruce Rioja wrote:Because I don't care what they do or don't find on another planet? Good.

There's not much point in searching for life on another planet though, which is my initial point.Lost Leopard Spot wrote:They are searching for it because it is a probable indicator of life... on another planet.

Re: General Chit Chat
A bit unfair on Charlie who just looks like she should ease off on the pies a tad. That statue could be used as an explanation as to what the Commandment about "graven images" means. Looks like a drunken er,"big-girl" doing the hokey-kokey."thebish"]^ entirely backing up my theory that the hideous new "Madonna" statue at Ely Cathedral (in the lady chapel) is modelled on Charlie Dimmock...

HMRC have been on. This year I'll be able to earn £444 before they get their claws into me, which is better than the usual K coding, I suppose.
