Planets and Scientists

I was stunned that I didn't see the usual things that come out of these discussions - some scientist screaming like Dr. Frankenstein: "LIFE! LIFE!"

It seems like anything they find on Mars draws at least a couple of those out.

My new favorite is the new planet they discovered. It's 93 trillion miles away (or something like that) - we know next to nothing about it, yet there they are. "There could be LIFE! LIFE!!!!"

When they come back with actual evidence of something, then I'll be happy to hear it. Otherwise, it's just fodder to get their name in the paper.
