Statisical calculations are part of the laws of mathematics, so I am assuming that would be the grounding for that but realistic would need to see life (whatever kind) to exist on other planets before saying life can exist outside our own earth.
Even in our own solar system to find something would give at least a reference to start using statisical calculations. So NASA hurry up get out there and find some sort of wriggly thing please.
Confirming the existance via radio waves would need to form some sort of mathmatical principle before assuming there is life. Morse code was the first form of communications here on earth. The WOW report was a good start.
What I would like to see is the actual signal received posted (freely accessible) instead of a report.
I dont have a problem in assuming there is life out there and am greatful for some noise that is out of the ordinary. I am even signed up with SETI@home too. BTW the building blocks of life aren't going to convince the masses as well.
