"1300 leading scientists believe that?"

You can find "1300 leading scientists" (including Nobel Prize winners) who believe just about anything, including that "up" is really "down", "white" is "black" and that the moon is really made from green cheese.

Generally, though, there is evidence that the extinction rate varies greatly over time. We (humans) may think we're pretty darn powerful, but we ain't nuttin' compared to the comet that killed the dinosaurs.
