Raining Extraterrestrial Microbes in Kerala?
jdfox writes "World Science is reporting on a controversial paper to be published shortly in the peer-reviewed research journal Astrophysics and Space Science, describing a strange red rain that fell in India in 2001, shortly after a meteor airburst event in the area. The authors posit that the red particles found in the raindrops may be extraterrestrial microbes. The authors' last two papers on the subject were unpublished: this published paper is more cautious. The paper can be viewed online, and should obviously be considered in context. More info on the 'panspermia' hypothesis can be found at Wikipedia."
Um, forgot to post my age. (I'm the *Snif* anonymous coward) I'm 23. I was 22 when I first had sex.
Don't despair. If you're not good with teh chicks, wait for true love. It's pretty awkward still being a virgin at 22; women expect sexual experience you haven't, and you need someone who will tolerate you not knowing what the hell to do the first times.
I guess, anyway. Sex in a deep romantic relationship is more fun, anyway. It can be wild & rough, it can be caring & sweet, it can involve teh weird fetishes you wouldn't confess to the average chick, and all.
Just try to be an interesting person and don't worry too much. Geeks are interesting people in their own right, and as long as you can geek out over a wider range of subjects you should be all set. In your early-20s, the social skills you lacked during your teens aren't that complicated anymore, and it's easier to go out and mingle.
Oh, btw. I met my g/f on IRC. She was first attracted to my grammar.
Try to find love.
