It does Alex ..even this older article on the first self replicator molecule http://www.newscientist.com/article/...st-replicator/
..somewhat answers the what came first , "the Chicken or the Egg" riddle of Rna or proteins needed first.
bigjoe.
Thanks for that link.
One of my favorite subjects.
I think we still need to work out how the chicken or the egg was made.
I think a droplet of water vapour size in interesting.
It has properies of an egg.
The molecules near the surface line up in a certain way and it maintains a charge both of which helps establish ot as a seperaye unit.
But enough of that as I have lost all references to really talk about it.
However one of the problems apart from the chemicals etc is the creation and maintenance of a seperate environment something which finally we could call an egg.
But try as I may I cant find it.
Bert posted stuff about the water drplet years ago and I suppose going thru all his posts would find what I am talking about...but all sorts of searching has not turmed anything up.
