And multiplying the Drake Quation by 2 is laughably insignificant... although my first ever shot at estimating the value of the Drake Equation, I got precisely 2... which made me wonder, "us and who else?"
And yes, I am quite aware that given the enormous exponentials in the Drake Equation, it's almost silly to claim getting 2. But I did.

Replaced by the Rare Earth equation. From the book of the same name.

Not the Drake Equation.
Replaced by the Rare Earth equation, from the book of the same name by Ward and Brownlee. One of the ten most important books in my library.
