I'm not ignorant on this subject. I'm not a professional astronomer, but an engineer who has been following the search for extra-terrestrial planets almost since it began.

My "name one" challenge would be supported by any number of habitable-zone proponents, such as Dr. Guillermo Gonzales, Dr. Donald Brownlee and Dr. Peter Ward. Simply put, we do not believe there is another system like Sol in the entire galaxy. I know that is unpopular with the trekker types, but it is supported by hard facts.
