Okay, we can call off the search

[Jorden]

What did I just read on CNN?

<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" size="2">When the U.S. space agency NASA started its astrobiology program -- a search for life in space -- researchers teamed up to see what it would take to make a cell in space.

"Scientists believe the molecules needed to make a cell's membrane, and thus for the origin of life, are all over space," Louis Allamandola of NASA's Ames Research Center in California, who led the study, said in a statement. "This discovery implies that life could be everywhere in the universe."</font>

So I guess that we can call off the search then


Edit:

More news from the UK

BBC News tells us something more.

<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" size="2">Proof that a rare form of carbon could be drifting in the vast spaces between the stars has been found by a team of scientists from the University of Hawaii.

It is a discovery that may have implications for the origin of life on Earth and possibly elsewhere in the Universe.</font>

Okay, it's possible... so skip the call off of the search and continue

Ahh, but indeed we are running SETI@home and not SETL@home. Subtle, but important difference.
