"There is no life out there, there is only life here on Earth--the rest is "outer space". "We are the only ones that can think". Dogs and chimps can't think "they are just dumb animals." I keep trying to teach my dog,Mittens the pitbull, to play chess but the best I could do was a chewed up rook. The dog is, however, doing quite well in conditioning me and regularly gets what she wants. We are a curious species and a few of us will always look for more out of life than dogma. We will hope for 100Ghz processors and Terabyte data storage devices and 3D virtual reality monitors and........ Tim "Cosmos" Frohlick
