Boost to Chances of Life on Europa?
Gavinsblog writes "New Scientist is reporting that scientists have found that electricity
is produced when aluminium bullets are fired into a block of ice. This raises
the chances of finding life on Europa, as eletrical shocks of this kind could
cause complex molecules to form. An electrifying discovery? :-)"
Do you understand what you are talking about? You remind me of when the JWs come a-knocking at my door to lecture me on geology. They don't have a clue what they are talking about but they recite a well rehearsed script that they're supposed to repeat whenever the person who answers the door reveals they have scientific inclinations.
Doesn't it make you feel good to know that our freedoms are protected by politicans, lawyers and journalists.
Textbooks are often wrong in the details. If that is your only point, you went through a lot of trouble to say nothing remotely new to anyone here. And you phrased it extraordinarily badly, too.
As for "choices", I was -admittedly- anthropomorphicizing somewhat. I imagine you are smart enough to know that, though. Right? You can replace "chose" with "life came to use", if you are a stickler for undue precision.
