13. Why?

Edited on Mon Apr-21-08 11:08 PM by frogcycle

He made the same point as Carl Sagan and many others. Statistically, it is highly probable there is alien life. The fact we have not observed evidence of advanced forms via SETI suggests a lack of advanced forms nearby, but does not in any way contradict the probability of lesser forms, not necessarily primitive. After all, the dinosaurs did not invent radio, and the ancient Egyptians didn't either.
