> Hi Everyone,

> With all due respect to all. This list has ONE forum. Almost ALL forums

> online have many forum categories, and most have an off-topic category

> forum for people to communicate their opinions and discuss off-topic

> posts. It keeps the community whole and gives members who wish to

> discuss off-topic issues, a choice. In other words you still do have a

> choice. Read the post or hit your delete key.

>

> The "Alien Life" thread is in fact either indirectly or possibly

> directly related to meteorites, and therefore VERY worthy of this list.

> Anyone who'd like to argue that notion should reconsider their own

> understanding of what the study of meteorites truly means and their own

> list membership. By complaining about seemingly off-topic posts in

> regards to aliens people are in effect saying they don't want to learn

> about their universe. Sorry if that seems harsh, but I've seen a lot

> worse things on this list than the serious philosophical and

> scientifically educated discussions of the possibility of life elsewhere

> in the universe.

>

> I for one would much rather discuss seriously the alien life subject in

> relationship to the studies being performed on meteorites, and the

> evidence being found within them that support the notion of life

> elsewhere, rather than be a part of a forum who speaks unintelligently

> about alien abduction, or close encounters and UFO sightings.

>

> Besides, the whole reason behind the study of meteorites in the first

> place is to learn MORE about our universe, and this CERTAINLY includes

> the search for extraterrestrial life and in fact could center on it.

> Those who would argue that scientific and logical discussion about the

> possibilities of life elsewhere in our universe based on the connection

> between that life and meteorites is somehow "Not Worthy" and "Off-Topic"

> is somehow not entirely fair or correct.

>

> It doesn't have to be a discussion about little green men, it has to do

> with the study of meteorites and the real possibility of

> extraterrestrial life, and the direct connections with meteorites if any

> that exist.

>

> To deny that is simply akin to an ostrich sticking it's head in the sand.
