my last thoughts on the matter
as covered by drakes equation... will life survive itself as civilization progresses?
not on this planet. we are quite happy to incrementally go one step further ie chop just one more tree down , then another etc, a concept taught in childrens books ( the lorax by Dr suess). always assuming that it wont make a difference ( the frog in the slowly boiling water) , add to the mix war, pollution, overpopulation, global warming, plus a host of other things. given we have not learned from history, i guess we never will.
back to drakes equation, how long does a civilization last..... not long in the big picture (10,000 years out of 14,000,000,000) if life just like us was out there and it behaved like us ..... youd never find them.
