"Yes...I should have been more explicit. I believe life has arisen elsewhere, but intelligent life, IMO, is a one-off that (likely) only happened here because of a great series of coincidences. "

Yes...a possibility. However, in my little brain, I would think that if an intelligent civilization arose, say, 100,000 years ago, they would have figured out space-time travel and found us.
Or, then again, maybe they have observed us, taken one look at the democrats, and headed right back to Alpha Centauri.
