Like I said, I think that this adventurous spirit is very much discouraged by the way we do science. I have serious doubts that in this day and age that you would be able to get funding for this, or that there's a professor out there who would let his students do a similar experiment - we'll see if these guys try replicating the experiments with elements more consistent with what we now think the early atmosphere was like, and whether they get published or not...Ian Vitrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11144502741558706531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8227460844825010061.post-68550116945151237842008-10-22T13:02:00.000-04:002008-10-22T13:02:00.000-04:00It is funny you mentioned about Miller.

Miller was an "eccentric" (i.e. thinking differently) in his field and governments unfortunately don't offer such places anymore in science. <BR/>BTW, I started a blog with a buddy of mine who is now in San Francisco.
