NASA scientists last night unveiled compelling evidence of life on Mars.

A special mission to the Red Planet has revealed the likely presence of a form of pond scum - the building blocks of life as we know it.

I read The Case for Mars a couple of months back. An old book I know . . . but still absolutely fascinating.

“Nasa: Evidence of life on Mars”

“A special mission to the Red Planet has revealed the likely presence of a form of pond scum...”

What?? This isn’t evidence! It’s conjecture. Likely presence—maybe there’s a likely presence of a KFC up there and that’s chicken grease. Cripes, what a crappy and misleading headline.

What’s the big deal about water? 30 years ago, I thought it was determined there were ice caps on Mars. I admit I haven’t kept up with it much at all. Is this supposed to be frozen ammonia or something and not water?

Still pretty interesting stuff—I just wish the grandiose and misleading headlines would go away unless it’s warranted.

The Dems are planing to tax them as soon as they can get the IRS off of the porn sites.

“Pond scum used to justify a big increase in NASA funding.”

NOW it’s fixed.
