Reminded me of the bloke talking on ABC Radio the other evening about 
new measurements of a galaxy that show it to be twice the diameter 
previously thought.  This led the interviewer to speculate on the 
possibility of "other planets similar to Earth" either there, or 
generally.  The astronomer replied that there was most likely a very 
large number of rocks like ours scattered around out there.

Interviewer:  And what about the possibility of finding intelligent 
life on some of them?

Astronomer:  I don't know.  I'm still trying to find it here on Earth.

Cheers, Phred.
